I went to a small high school, so I wanted a college in which I felt like I was a student and not just an identification number. I looked at a variety of different colleges and was not really sure that any of them were for me. I got a call from the Ferrum Admissions office about a potential scholarship offer. When I had applied to Ferrum, I had never even heard of it. After looking into Ferrum College, I decided I needed to come and check it out. After coming for a visit, I fell in LOVE with Ferrum and it was exactly what I was looking for!
After switching my major for the fourth...or fifth time, I decided that Elementary Education was the right major for me. One of the things I love about Ferrum is that with every education class, there is an internship involved. I am able to get into the classroom and see first-hand what it is like to be a teacher as well as how much education has changed since I was in elementary school.
I am involved in a few activities on campus as well. I am in the Scholars in Residence Program, which requires having a certain GPA and attending one educational or community service event each month. I also have a work-study job and am a freshman seminar mentor, and an orientation team member (I was an O-Team Captain last year).
As I always say to my friends: Bye for now, be safe, and make good choices!
