I chose Tulane because...

What initially drew me to Tulane was the vibrant mood on campus. When I arrived at Tulane my junior year of high school, all of the students were just getting back from their spring break. Unlike the sad, dreary mood that typically filled the halls of my high school when we got back from break, the students at Tulane were just so happy to be back in their place. I chose Tulane because I wanted to feel that same excitement and love for my campus. Of course, I was also drawn to Tulane's wide variety of academic offerings as well as its unique location.

Favorite Tulane class/professor...

My favorite class that I have taken so far at Tulane was Deviant Behavior (SOCI 1080) with Kelsey Yeargain. It was so interesting to look at how society deems what is taboo as well as how we characterize these behaviors based on socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, and gender.

My favorite spots in New Orleans are...

French Truck coffee, Audubon Park, Magazine Street, Poke Loa, Ace Hotel, City Park etc.

My favorite NOLA festival is...

Jazz Fest!!! Also Beignet Fest, Art for Arts Sake, Fried Chicken Fest, and Mac N Cheese Fest!
