Feature Questions
Why did you choose Saint Joseph's College?
I had been recruited by the cross country coach and came for an overnight visit and just really enjoyed the small campus community. I had also heard a lot about the education program and then I was sold.
What is/was your favorite class at St. Joe's and why?
My favorite class would have to be Measurement and Evaluation with Dr. Rey. I took it in the May semester and I absolutely loved the class. There were only 7 students, so we all got to work together through each class with a lot of conversation. I think that it really brought me out of my comfort zone and was really worth my time.

I was a hostess at Charlie Beiggs
