"What is your favorite thing about U-M?"

“My favorite thing about UM is all the different opportunities available to students. Growing up in a small town my experiences were pretty limited but at UM I have the ability to try anything I want to. From gallery talks at the UMMA to conducting research in the environmental psychology laboratory to attending workshops on community organizing, UM gives me the opportunities to explore all of my personal and academic interests. I’m able to interact with a diverse array of people who bring their own unique set of passions and experiences to the table."

"What clubs or organizations have you joined at U-M?"

“The Stamps Scholarship has given me the opportunity to study a wide variety of topics and take risks academically without being weighed down by financial pressures. I have joined a comedy improv group on campus called ComCo, and the rehearsals are always the highlights of my week. I've made amazing friends through the small group, and performing with them in Angell Hall is an amazing experience!"

"Do you have a favorite class/professor?"

“My favorite class is HISTORY 265: Mind and Brain in America taught by Dr. Henry Cowles. I’ve never taken any sort of history class in a classroom setting (all mine were online in high school) and I’m not a big history person, but I really enjoy learning about how the idea of mental health changed throughout history. I intend on obtaining a dual degree in Psychology from LSA and Movement Science from Kinesiology."

"In deciding where to spend the next four years of my life, I could not have asked for anything better than the University of Michigan.

I have the wonderful opportunity to be studying for a BFA in Theatre Design & Production at the School of Music, Theatre, and Dance.

"What are your first impressions of U-M?"

“One of my favorite things about UM is the sense of community that I've felt whether it be with the Stamps Scholars family, with my dorm-mates, in a club, or in classes. It seems like you can always find someone to relate to based on commonalities or interests you share with each other."
