Why did you choose UW-Stevens
Point?
Everyone was really welcoming and friendly when
I visited, and it just felt right.
What
do you like most about going to UWSP?
All of the
professors seem to be very open and willing to help when we have
problems with the material. And Central Wisconsin is great! There
is always something to do, bigger cities are close by, and you can
walk or bike everywhere.
What
are your career goals?
I plan on being a 4th
or 5th grade teacher.
How
has UW-Stevens Point prepared you for life after
graduation?
My education classes have given me
experiences in writing lesson plans, time management, classroom
discipline, and so much more. I even teach a class of my own at the
Central Wisconsin Environmental Station.
What's
been a favorite experience at UW-Stevens Point?
Working
with so many great people! Being on staff in the Residence Halls
and being involved with Student Government - we are offered so many
opportunities for both educational purposes and our
enjoyment.
What
advice would you give to a new UWSP student?
Take time
to get to know a lot of different people, and have fun!
