鈥淚 chose to go to 麻豆直播 because my brother was going for football, and I ended up going on his official visit with them. I fell in love with the closeness of the campus on this visit, and three years later I became a student.
鈥淢y favorite spot was the sitting area around the library. I worked in the Marx Library, and it was peaceful and calm. It was in the center of campus, and I could see everything.
鈥淒r. Krista Harrell had the most impact on me. She was the reason why I am in the field of mental health today. She was the coordinator when I was there, so got me into the Vagina Monologues, which I participated in all four years. Dr. Harrell was caring and passionate about her job, and left the most lasting impression to this day.
鈥溌槎怪辈� is the reason why I have my job now at Lifelines Counseling Services. I met my internship supervisor at 麻豆直播, and she placed me into the job. If it hadn't been for 麻豆直播, I would have never been in the position that I'm in today.鈥�
