Student Engagement/Residential Living Q & A (with Matt Gawel and Christine LeMoult)
What do you look forward to most at the beginning of every school year?
I love move-in day, meeting students’ families, seeing life back on campus & everyone enjoying themselves and socializing after being away from each other for awhile!
What are some special but often overlooked places on campus?
The barn across the street & the walking paths/gardens around it.
What are three things you think are important for each student to try and accomplish within their first few weeks of arriving on campus?
Join a couple clubs/teams, establish some sort of work-out/wellness activity schedule, review their class syllabi and plan out their assignments for the semester & get a job on campus!
What is a fun fact about you and/or your department?
I have a shepherd/mastiff mix named Bodi!
What advice would you give to a transfer student? A non-residential student?
Join clubs & organizations, take on leadership roles, work-out on campus, get a job on-campus
