I chose Hartwick because of the faculty-student connections. All my professors make an effort to not only know my name, but my personal interests as well. Even as a prospective student I saw this effort. They truly make you feel like you belong.

I love being a Peer Health Educator because it allows me to spread knowledge that will help my peers make responsible and healthy choices. I enjoy hosting fun events with my coworkers and working in the office with our supervisor. It’s a warm feeling to know you are making a difference on this campus.

My favorite class thus far is Educational Psychology. Professor Ross Bussell is one of the best professors on this campus, and his class taught me much more than surface level knowledge. I truly feel that his class changed my perspective and career path. The funny thing is, it was not even a requirement for my major!
