Why did you chose Central?


I chose Central because of the close-knit community and family like atmosphere. My brother attended Central before me and I’ve always felt at home there. I feel that everyone at Central truly wants what is best for me and they are willing to do whatever it takes to help achieve my goals.

Favorite professor and why?

Dr. Reece is my favorite because she is my advisor and she is always so willing to help with anything I may need.

You’re majoring in Sociology because?
