What is your favorite memory at Mercer so far?
Meeting one of my best friends in my O-Group! We were the only two psych majors and both super shy, but we eventually started talking and now we're besties!
Best advice you have for incoming students?
Get to know your professors! Every professor I've had at Mercer has shown a genuine passion for connecting with and helping their students. By establishing relationships with them, I've been given opportunities to do research in both of my majors and created lasting and meaningful connections that extend past my classroom experiences.
I chose Mercer because...
I chose Mercer because of the sense of community I was able to feel even as a junior in high school. Mercer felt like the best possible place for me to grow personally and academically in an environment where I get to follow my passions and accomplish goals that mean a lot to me.
What is your favorite restaurant in Macon, GA?
My favorite restaurant in Macon is by far the Rookery. It's always where I take my family when they come to visit and everyone loves it!
