Why do you love OU?:
“I love that Oglethorpe cares about its students holistically. OU is committed to helping its students thrive in every area of their lives, not just in academics. The support and resources offered on campus are incredible.”
What advice do you have to students?:
“Your college experience is what you make it. Don’t be afraid to seek out and take advantage of opportunities that challenge you. Try new things even if you aren’t good at them. Intentionally get to know people who have different beliefs/perspectives. You’ll be surprised by how much growth can come from stepping out of your comfort zone.”
