What is your favorite campus resource at Butler?
Obviously there are a myriad of resources available here at Butler. The ones I use the most often are professors’ time outside of class and libraries. Outside of academics, I often utilize the HRC, especially the fitness classes. However, I think the best resource at our disposal is the Butler community. The faculty and students have cultivated an environment in which it’s ok to ask for help with whatever challenge one is facing, academic or otherwise.
What is your proudest moment as a Bulldog?
My proudest moment so far at Butler was when I finished the Triton Brewing Sprint Triathlon this past September. My friend Patrick and I signed up and trained together, balancing workouts with academics and other extracurricular activities. Finally, race day came and a large group of our friends came out to cheer us on. A triathlon was a bucket list item of mine, and finishing it alongside one of my best friends with a whole group supporting us made me feel as if I could accomplish anything. Crossing the finish line was an accomplishment in and of itself, but a huge part of my sense of pride came from knowing that I have formed such strong friendships since coming to Butler and that moment demonstrated that for me.
