In 10 years, I will be…

Married with a child and teaching in either an elementary classroom or in a special educational classroom … and of course, having fun.

What's the coolest thing you've done since you began attending Dana?
Let's see … I love being in Theatre and music. I have met lots of friends, been able to grow as an individual and show my talents all at the same time.

Why did you choose Dana?
I loved the small, FRIENDLY campus. Also, I love the programs and job placement. I was able to join a great community where I could get involved and grow.

What's the best thing about being a student at Dana?
Knowing that you know almost everybody, because you can walk to class and know everyone and get to class and know everybody. It makes it much more fun and easier to learn.

What will you remember most about your time at Dana?
The friends I've made … of course! Also the fun I've had AND the personal growth I have gone through.

What's the best thing about living on campus?
I've lived in Holling, Blair and Mickelsen Halls. The best thing about being on campus is you don't have to go far to find something to do and you get to know a lot of your friends.

What do you and your friends enjoy doing?
Hanging out and talking, watching movies, playing PlayStation 2, going bowling, going to Omaha … and in the winter sledding!

What college class has been the most fun for you and why?
My favorite class has been Acting I or II because even though it is a lot of work, I have learned a lot about myself and the people around me.
