-After transferring three times and switching my major and
minor, I finally discovered what I wanted to be doing. UW La
Crosse was a great place to do it at.
-This year, I would like to streamline communication between the
student body and campus organizations by making information
about different groups and activities easily accessible. I would
also like to raise UWL's profile in the La Crosse community, and
make campus events even more visible and inviting than they
already are.
