Why did you choose Bishop's?

I chose Bishop's for the community that I heard so much about. Coming from a small boarding school, the thought of a big school didn't seem appealing and so I took this leap of faith and it has turned out to be one of the best adventures so far.

What's your favourite Bishop's event?

Homecoming has been by far one of the best events on campus. The school comes together to bleed purple in one of the most genuine and beautiful ways possible.

How have you changed since becoming a Gaiter?

Personally, I don't think I have changed that much. I have grown a lot. I've been more aware of myself and of others. I have become more independent, more self-sufficient and more me. There is still so much growth to do and so many things to learn, and I am so glad I get to do it surrounded by people who care so much and who are growing and learning with me too.

What's your favourite class at Bishop's?

Psychology 102. This is one of the biggest classes on campus, with 100 and something students. However, this is the most interesting and most engaging class I have been able to take. The content is very relatable and the course isn't the easiest, however, the help I get from the professor and peers makes it so worth it.
