My favorite laboratory experiment was...
In chemistry. The titrations were really cool and interesting! Loved seeing the colors change.
My most memorable Behrend experience...
Was giving my first actual open house tour! I loved being able to help prospective students and answer any questions using my own Behrend experience.
The Behrend science program has prepared me for my future career....
In many ways. The nursing program is under the school of science and it, so far, has allowed me to grow my skills as a nurse. The staff makes sure that I am comfortable and confident with everything.
My favorite location on campus is...
The top of the parking garage! The view of Erie is amazing, especially while the sun is setting. Campus and Erie all together looks gorgeous.
