Favorite Time at SCSU
My favorite times at SCSU were when I worked on productions with the SCSU Theatre Department. Doing shows is a hands-on learning experience no matter what your position is and I learned so much every time I worked on a show.
What are you going to miss the most, and what are you looking forward to the most?
I am going to miss all of the amazing people I've met at Southern. I will, of course, stay in touch with my friends regularly. However, I will miss seeing everyone every day.
Advice to Incoming Students
Don't be afraid to put your foot in at the very beginning. I almost didn't audition for my first show at SCSU (The Boy Friend '16) because it was on the first day of classes. I don't know where I would be today if I hadn't just gone for it. Because of that experience, so many doors have opened for me during my time at college such being Secretary for the Crescent Players for three years.
