Living on Campus

The dorm I live in has large rooms with large closets which makes storing my belongings easy. The way the building is designed allows everyone on the floor to hear and see everything that is going on in the hallways which makes the experience very good. The dorms are a little run down because of the age of the building.

Engineering Internships

I have not done an internship yet but plan to do one with a local engineering company. A friend of mine was able to secure a full-time position following the completion of his internship and I hope to do the same.

Tough but Fair

Physics is a time-intensive major and requires me to work hard to get good grades. The classes are challenging but when I complete the class I have a sense of accomplishment. I enjoy the program and the material being taught which makes the workload somewhat enjoyable.
