Why did you choose Thiel?
I chose Thiel because of the smaller class sizes and having the chance to work one-on-one with my professors, as well as the notebook initiative.

Have you discovered anything about yourself as a result of your Thiel experience?
I was a shy person when I came here, but now I am more out going because of the job I have in the admission office and the small campus size. I have become a very good mulitasker due to having multiple papers and assignments due at different times. I can crank out a two to three page paper without much effort now because of the writing intensive courses I have taken in the core curriculum.

What has been your favorite part of your Thiel experience so far?
My favorite part of the Thiel experience has to be getting to know my professors personally. My professors know me by name and what my goals are after college. I have sat down and talked with them one on one and talked about what classes I should take in order to achieve my goals after college.

What has been your favorite course taken or activity at Thiel so far, and who was the instructor?
Neuropsychology with Dr. Griffin (Jenni). This class taught me how the brain works and how the brain communicates through neurotransmitters to other parts of the body. Jenni would tell us stories and relate them to class, which kept me interested in what we were studying.
