What is your favorite FSC memory?

Going to the Keys for the weekend with a bunch of fellow marine biology majors. The trip was led by Dr. Macrander and we stayed at a local research station. We spent the weekend snorkeling in multiple locations, collecting and identifying specimens, and bonding as a group. It was a great way to get to know the people in my major more as well as getting to see a new part of Florida, and it was a perfect immersive experience for marine biology.

Involvement (clubs/organizations):

Lifeguard at the Wellness Center, Omicron Delta Kappa, Tri Beta, Tri Rho, Enactus, Southern Ambassador

Why Florida Southern?

When I visited Florida Southern as a high schooler, I was struck by the overall sense of community on campus and throughout the student body. I loved how involved everyone was with on campus organizations, jobs, and academics. I knew I wanted a smaller school, and Florida Southern offered that while still having many of the opportunities that larger schools had. I also really loved the location on Lake Hollingsworth and how beautiful campus was.
