Why did you choose UCO? I chose UCO for many different reasons. I’m the seventh family member to attend UCO, so growing up with it and having supportive stories was a huge help. I just felt at home while on campus and knew it was the best place for me. Everything about it is amazing: the people, classes, atmosphere, EVERYTHING. The Leadership and Broadcasting programs were also big reasons. I can’t really explain it, or why I chose it, it’s just something someone has to experience for themselves.
How is UCO preparing you for the future? The most important thing that UCO is preparing me for is Leadership in life. Leadership is extremely important to me, and something that I believe is needed in all aspects of life. UCO has some of the best leaders in nation, and to be surrounded by them is an amazing feeling and keeps me motivated. Yes UCO is preparing me for a career, but UCO is using Leadership to take it and everything else to the next level.
What has been your most memorable moment on campus? Wow! I don’t know if I can pick one? So I’ve had a lot of memorable moments so far, but the one that sticks out is Wake Up in Wantland. It was a BLAST! It’s an event during stampede week, and basically a party at Wantland Stadium. It rained like crazy, but that made it even crazier. Plus it was on my 19th birthday, so I loved spending it with all of my friends here. They and Wake Up in Wantland made it that much better.
What is the best thing about life at UCO? The best thing is definitely the people. I’ve met so many amazing people and new friends that I know I will be with for my lifetime. You are always surrounded my awesome, supportive people which is a huge help, especially if you’re down about things. Another great thing is you see them all the time! The campus is big, but not overwhelming, so you are bound to see friendly faces everywhere you go. It’s such a positive place, with the best people ever!
What have you learned about yourself at UCO? The one thing that I’ve learned about myself is to just be myself. I know it sounds a little cheesy, but it’s so true. I graduated from a very small school so of course everyone had known me since pre-school, so I couldn’t help being a little nervous of how I would meet new people, make new friends, and how I would be accepted here. By being myself, I’ve eliminated all of those worries and have met so many amazing people who have accepted me for me. I’ve also succeeded in other areas by just staying true to myself and the way I do things.
