Favorite thing to do in the area...

Most of my favorite things to do in the area have to be with being outdoors. There are tons of different hikes in and around campus that I have enjoyed trying out. Also near campus are two ski mountains that I had fun trying out last year, and will be again this year with friends.

My advice to students searching for a college...

My advice to students choosing a college is to choose somewhere you could see yourself for the next four years. Do not choose a college just because they have a good basketball team, choose a college because they have the ability to satisfy your education needs. Also, choose somewhere that you are able to see yourself having a life outside of school. Your education is important, but you will not being doing homework 24/7. So choose somewhere with a community you see yourself enjoying and getting involved in.

Favorite thing about Lees-McRae....

My favorite thing about Lees-McRae is the diversity on campus. There is always something going on around campus that you can attend. I have had fun getting to experience new events and put myself out there to meet new people from different backgrounds from me.

Why I chose Lees-McRae...

I wanted to choose a college that felt like home but also felt like something new to experience. Lees-McRae had both. They also offered me the ability to continue running track in college but also allowed me to move somewhere I have always wanted to live, the mountains.
