What is your favorite memory at Mercer so far?
I have so many! But if I had to choose one it would definitely be my experience with Mercer's Minority Mentorship Program and Opportunity Scholars! It gave me the opportunity to really connect with a lot of amazing people and helped me make some life-long friends! It also helped me get a little taste of the college life before classes started, which was also really nice! Ever since, I have been absolute best friends with everyone I met during that time.
What is your favorite restaurant in Macon, GA?
Ocmuglee!
Best advice you have for incoming students?
Allow yourself some grace! The transition to college can be a lot to take in, and just remember you aren't alone! Get involved with different clubs and organizations and take advantage of the opportunities Mercer has to offer!
I chose Mercer because...
I chose Mercer because of it's incredible family dynamic! Everyone was extremely welcoming and truly made Mercer feel like home to me, even before I was a student here. I also loved the idea of Mercer on Mission and the act of learning through service. I really value the importance of helping the community in every way I can and Mercer really helps me do that!
