What class are you in?
“I am in the class of 2026.”
What is your favorite aspect of WCC?
“I love the spontaneity of the community and how many events are student-led. This last semester my friends planned a harvest party by the river with pumpkin carving, music, storytelling, and lots of food. It was super fun! Another favorite was an early morning hike for the Feast of All Saints. We made cheesy bagels and coffee at the top of the buttress, chanted the litany of the saints, and watched the sunrise.”
Fun fact about yourself?
“When I was 10 years old I raised a pig for our county fair and with the money that I made I bought a baby donkey. His name is Butter and he has really long ears. I took him on walks, read to him, and did everything a little girl does with her dog. (Once I almost brought him in the house). Now when I’m home and go riding he follows along.”
