Did you know where you sit in class can impact your focus and engagement? The “T-Zone” (front row and middle column) is the sweet spot for staying attentive and connected with your professor. Where do you like to sit in class?

Her favorite spot on campus is the serene third floor of Andersen, perfect for studying. 📚 Sammy is a self-encouragement pro, often having pep talks with herself during the day. Sammy's most unique talent? Reciting the alphabet backward!

When she started college, she feared not finding her people. It turns out, college had plenty of "her people" to discover. 💚

Eva's unique talent? Reciting numerous digits of pi, a skill she honed during a middle school competition! When starting college, she was most afraid of walking into the wrong lecture hall, a common concern for many.
