WHY DID YOU CHOOSE BLUFFTON?
I personally chose Bluffton because I felt it was the best available option to continue
my athletic career playing basketball at the collegiate level while being able to
take steps toward my long-term career goals through the majors available. Seeing campus
and visiting became the icing on the cake for making my decision to come to Bluffton
University.
WHY DID YOU CHOOSE YOUR MAJOR? WHAT’S MOST EXCITING ABOUT YOUR CLASSES?
I chose business administration and sports management because of my love for the world of sports as well as my interest in the business side of sports. Both majors encompass all the career interests I have for my future. The most exciting part about my classes is being able to take the courses that I personally enjoy. This helps me to feel far more invested in my classes on a day-to-day basis and makes each class more enjoyable.
TELL US ABOUT BLUFFTON’S FACULTY, STAFF AND COACHES. ARE THEY HELPING YOU REACH YOUR
GOALS?
Bluffton’s faculty, staff and coaches strive to help students reach their long-term and short-term goals. I can tell how invested each professor and coach is into creating the best opportunities for each student to succeed and build a future within their career.
WHAT STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS ARE YOU PART OF? WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO BE ACTIVE ON CAMPUS?
I am a part of the Bluffton University men’s basketball team as well as being a President Ambassador. I believe it is important to be active on campus as a way to leave an impact on others as well as on the university as a whole.
ARE YOU A STUDENT-ATHLETE? IF SO, WHICH SPORT(S) DO YOU PLAY, AND WHAT IS THE BEST
PART OF BEING ON A TEAM AT BLUFFTON?
As a member of the men’s basketball team, the best part of being on a team at Bluffton is the ability to be surrounded by people who love the sport just like I do. Also, the sense of brotherhood and community our team has built makes it feel like a family and a group of people I can trust through my time at Bluffton and beyond.
