What service would you highly recommend students utilize from Career Services?
I would recommend looking into all the internship information Career Services has to offer. You'll be introduced to many new employers and opportunities that you didn't know about before. Especially for those in the sciences, there is a specific section that highlights local, national, and international opportunities related to your area of study which will allow you to acquire some research or technical skills before heading off to the real world or grad school.

What is your major (minor if applicable) and why did you choose this area to study?
I'm majoring in Biology and minoring in Spanish and maybe Chinese if I can fit it into my schedule. I choose Bio because I'm thinking about pursuing medical school and it was my favorite class in high school. My minors will give me the opportunity to work internationally.

What are your special hobbies / interests? What do you like to do for fun?
I enjoy drawing and baking and given any free time in the winter, I go snowboarding.

After graduation, what is your career goal?
My short term goal is to get into med school and get a degree in Anesthesiology. Long term, I'd like to participate in the Peace Corps or Doctors Without Borders someday.
