What activities are you involved in at Fisher?
Service Scholars, Honors Program, Student Ambassador, SWAV, Phone-a-thon, and Student Nursing Association.
What is your favorite thing(s) about Fisher?
My favorite things about Fisher are the small class sizes which allow us to have a lot of hands-on experiences and that professors always have time to meet with students.
Why did you choose to attend Fisher?
I chose Fisher because of the Nursing program. The state-of-the-art technology and amount of time spent doing clinicals really prepares Fisher's nurses for the real world.
What has been your best/most memorable experience at Fisher?
My most memorable experience was Orientation because there were so many activities planned for us and we were genuinely welcomed to the College.
What is your favorite meal/food at Ward-Haffey?
My favorite is definitely the alfredo with chicken and broccoli at the pasta bar! I don't think dining hall food anywhere else can compare.
What was/is your favorite class/course? Why?
My favorite class was my Learning Community: Leadership through Self Development because I learned a lot about myself and how to use my attributes to be an effective leader.
