"Since coming to Luther, I've felt like I have a new family in my new home away from home. The campus atmosphere is such that you can be involved with many different activities. Besides running cross country and track, I'm a member of Jazz Orchestra and the Health Science Club. Undoubtedly one of my most rewarding experiences has been Jazz Orchestra's trip to Brazil. I also had the privilege of going on a Habitat for Humanity trip during spring break."
