"When I first stepped onto 91¿ì²¥'s campus, I felt at home. I noticed how people engaged with the campus; students were smiling, professors looked excited, and local families played amongst the various sculptures. I learned about the various traditions that connected the 91¿ì²¥ community with the college like the Cake Race, Farmer's Market, and Christmas in 91¿ì²¥. I couldn't wait to participate in these traditions and I knew immediately that I wanted to be apart of the 91¿ì²¥ family."
