Experiences at Tusculum College

Have a community based attitude, insofar as your focus is on how your actions can better the community as a whole, as opposed to one sect of people or another.

Graduated Cum Laude with a 3.73 GPA.

I have an excellent academic background student. Tusculum College functions on a block schedule which means students take classes one course at a time, three hours a day and lasts for eighteen days. This system demands high level of focus and consistent attention from a student everyday. In spite of the immense time pressure and intense schedule, the block system has helped me develop ways to interact with challenges and create good time management skills.

Through the Bonner Leaders program, a national civic engagement scholarship program for college students, I have developed my understanding of several socioeconomic problems. Through national workshops and conferences, I have also gained a clearer idea about vital business issues such as fair trade, corporate social responsibility and effective foreign policies. Last summer, I assisted a local non-profit to promote the organization among the local community by creating brochures and giving presentations.

In addition, I am tutor and organize several campus-wide initiatives and trips. I love travelling and I participate in various outdoor activities. I can proudly say I am one of the most active student on campus....

Lunches at Tusculum College are a hit and miss. One day you can go and the food will be great, but the next day you would rather starve than eat the food they have in there.

My daily commute is a 30 minute drive through the scenic mountains of East Tennessee from my childhood home.

What motivates me most is the fact that I know I only have four years here to learn as much as I can. I want to get the most out of my education here, and I want to make my professors and family proud of how well I have done here.

My motivation is derived from the potential to produce the best possible work that I am capable of doing while attending Tusculum College.
