My favorite food on campus: Strombolis from the International Zone
My best URI moment (so far): Being initiated into my fraternity
My biggest surprise at URI: How great and community-minded the Greek system is.
My favorite place on campus (and why): Newman Hall. I love history and imagining it as a fraternity house before it became Admission. It has a very interesting design. Working as a summer tour guide was unforgettable as well.
On the weekends I: Hang around and find something to do.
My favorite class (and why): Philosophy. My professor encouraged us to strengthen our beliefs by initially breaking them down and engaging in serious discussions about them.
I selected URI because: of the atmosphere of the campus and the opportunities for learning; and the proximity to the beach!
