How did you discover Western?

I discovered Western Colorado University while researching colleges in my price range, location, and school size and immediately fell in love with the views and the education program.

What are some of the highlights of your time at Western?

The best memories I have at Western are going on walks and hikes with my friends and never knowing what adventure we will find, all of the events that Western hosts like Rail Jam, SpringFest, and sports games, and feeling a part of the community while cheering on Western.

What most excites you about your major?

I am studying elementary education and what excites me most is being able to learn different teaching styles and be able to apply them in a hands-on setting before having my own classroom.

What is your favorite thing about the Gunnison Valley?

What I love about the Gunnison Valley is that there are so many opportunities and activities that you are able to try. Before coming to Western I had never experienced many of the outdoor activities that were now offered to me and it gave me a great opportunity to try any activity I was interested in.
