“Of course, Carthage is known for its 密歇根湖的美景, but being from such a small high school, the ability to have 班级规模更小 和 real connections with my professors was one of the main reasons I chose Carthage. Little did I know that it would be all I wished for! I am incredibly thankful to the professors I have here at Carthage, 和 I couldn’t do it without them.”

“I would not be where I am without the faculty at Carthage. My professors have been some of the most helpful 和 supportive people inside 和 outside the classroom. A lot of what I do today is chalked up to the support they have given me. The relationships I have built with them are something I’ll always cherish.”

“My favorite class here at Carthage has to be Joy Mast教授的 国家公园等级! As an avid lover of the outdoors 和 environmentalist, learning about the geologic history of some of my favorite national parks was the most fun 和 exciting class to take! My list of places to visit grew immensely afterward.”

“My toughest class has to be Environmental Chemistry. While I wish I could say chemistry is my strong suit, that class definitely put me to the test. As an environmental science major in the conservation track, chemistry was something completely new. We had a semester-long lab project testing soil samples for triclosan, 和 while testing for real-life pollutants was an experience I never thought I’d have, I realized the lab is not where I belong!”

“One of my greatest opportunities is being a part of the students behind 全球十大赌钱排行app’s Sustainability Summit. This is my second year planning this event in which we strive to cultivate an awareness for environmental sustainability both on our campus 和 within the community. Being able to bring in so many environmental experts to speak on behalf of their passions is truly inspiring. When I was asked to be a part of the planning process last year, I never thought it’d lead to what it is today. I am so thankful I get to be a part of something so much bigger than myself. I also get to work with some of the smartest 和 most talented people I know.”

“This past summer, I was able to work locally for Thompson & Associates Wetl和s 服务 as a Wetl和 Conservation 和 Restoration Intern. 虽然, I worked on invasive treatment 和 wildlife management 和 spent lots of time wading through the water, 与海狸一起工作! I’m also the Geospatial Science Department Fellow, where I get to tutor other GIS students. 另外, I am a Green Team Sustainability Intern, where I spend my time organizing events 和 canvassing for sustainability. While these all have kept me quite busy, I couldn’t be more thankful for them all!”

“I love to hammock in the trees alongside the slope near Oaks Circle. Not only is it the perfect place to relax in a hammock, but you can’t beat the 湖景!”

“Although there are many, some of my favorite moments 和 memories are from the rock wall! While my fear of heights never changed, 和 I don’t climb nearly as much as you would imagine, my closest friends 和 favorite memories will always be from there.”

“人民! Coming into Carthage as a freshman during COVID was extremely hard. Meeting people 和 getting involved felt virtually impossible. 但在我意识到之前, I am now a junior who has met so many individuals I hope to keep in my life forever. 即使在那时, the sense of community I found within personal friendships 和 campus involvement has been amazing.”

“My biggest piece of advice is to stay open-minded 和 put yourself out there. You never know what opportunities could arise. Also, I know GIS can be scary, but I promise it’s more than worth it!”
