Favorite Tulane class/professor...

My favorite professor was my TIDES teacher, Jessica Podewell. She made every class fun, and I don't think I've ever met someone like her who truly wants to help you in every way she can.

I chose Tulane because...

My grandparents taught at Tulane for 20+ years, so I've been going to New Orleans and the Tulane campus since I can remember. It feels like a second home to me. It had everything I was looking for in a school. I liked the size of the student body, it was in a city while still having its own campus, and I have the freedom to explore my options for what I want to study and do over my four years.

My favorite NOLA festival is...

Fried Chicken Festival

My favorite spots in New Orleans are...

Cafe du Monde, Audubon and City Park, Frankie & Johnny's, the Garden District, and the Superdome when the Saints are good.
