Why did you choose to attend UAF?
Honestly? It was the cheapest university that was still close to home. Aside from that, I recieved a scholarship for my first year.
What do you like best about UAF?
Everything! The instructors/professors/teachers/friends, and all the activities and clubs that are available.
What extracurricular activities are you a part of?
Alpha Phi Omega and the Nanook Pep Band
What is one piece of advice you would give to a prospective student interested in UAF?
Don't be afraid to ask.
What "field work" have you done at UAF that will help you find work in your major?
Well, being a sociology major, I'm always "on the job" trying to figure out how things are done.
What do you hope to do after you graduate?
Go to nursing school.
Anything you'd like to add about yourself?
I'm awesome and love to answer questions. If there is something I don't know, I want to know it so I can tell it to the next person who asks!
