Why did you choose CAADatMSU?
I chose CAAD at MSU because of the community. A strong community in a studio environment was really important to me. Everyone at CAAD at MSU, from staff to students, makes you feel welcomed and a part of a larger family.
Favorite spot on campus?
As someone who enjoys being active, my favorite place is the Sanderson Center. It is where I go to take a break from school.
