Q&A Top 5
|
|
What is your job? |
|
I am the First-Year Coordinator of Residence Education. |
|
What other campus activities are you involved in? |
|
I serve as the Advisor for the Residential Housing Association (RHA) and serve as a member of the Family Weekend Committee. |
|
What advice do you have for students on how to have a successful college experience? |
|
Treat the people you meet with respect and they will respect you. You will meet a lot of different people. Take advantage of learning something new from each person you meet. If you live on campus, get to know your Residence Life staff. |
|
What do you like about Case/Cleveland? |
|
I enjoy that there are so many different cultural things to do, and that you can walk to them! From going to the Botanical Gardens, to having dinner at Little Italy, there's always something fun and unique that's close by. You can also easily get on the RTA and head downtown to see the Indians, Browns, or Cavs play. |

What is your favorite quote or motto? |
The most important things are the hardest things to say, they are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them — words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that isn't it?
The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly, only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried saying it. That's the worst I think, when the secret stays locked within ...
not for want of a teller ... but for want of an understanding ear.
