Why did you choose Virginia Wesleyan?
I chose Virginia Wesleyan because it is a small, private institution that has everything that I want and need in a college - I feel like I am a part of something great and promising. I feel right at home and am proud to be a Marlin!
What campus activities are you currently (or plan to be) involved in?
- Voices of Soul
- Step Team
- Wesleyan Activities Council
- Black Student Union
- Circle K Tutoring Program
What is your favorite class?
World Religions -The best part about this class is that we have a big discussion, share our opinions, and analyze the differences - professor Dr. Craig Wansink makes it’s so much fun!
What advice would you give to a student deciding on which college to attend?
Remember, you are not just choosing a college, but you are choosing a home. Make sure that the college fits you. I know I did, and it was the best decision I ever made in my entire life.
