What is your favorite part about SDSU?<\/b><\/p>\n

Moving out & joining FOCUS (pre-optometry club), Andrea O’Donnel’s Womyn’s Outreach Association, and Alpha Phi Omega. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How has the Compact Scholars Program helped you throughout your college career?<\/b><\/p>\n

Gave me a guaranteed acceptance and sense of inclusion with being part of the program. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tell us about an experience you have had outside of class. (Job, internship, project, etc.)<\/b><\/p>\n

I worked at Hollister at Otay Ranch then transferred to Abercrombie & Fitch at Fashion Valley when I moved out closer to school. I volunteered at Scripps Mercy Chula Vista and now I’m currently beginning my volunteering at UC San Diego’s Shiley Eye Institute. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What is your favorite class on campus and why?<\/b><\/p>\n

My favorite class on campus is Women’s Studies because we get to learn about women’s history (other feminist topics) and I empathize with minority oppressions. This is stuff we didn’t learn in high school. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Are you involved in any organizations or clubs on campus?<\/b><\/p>\n

FOCUS, WOA, and APO.<\/span><\/p>\n
