“I transferred here. I went to a community college on Long Island where I lived for my first two years [of college], and then I came here. I just love it here; there’s just something about it. The campus is gorgeous and I feel like [all the English education department professors who I have had] just really care about the students … [I don’t have a specific experience], it’s just like a general feeling, I guess. I’ve always really liked kids, but like especially middle and high school. It’s just a really hard time and I know I had a really hard time in middle school … I had so many teachers in high school who were really so wonderful and helped me kind of get through it and I want to be that for kids who tend to be or feel like the underdog.”
