STUDENT IMPACT

“The transition to college initially felt like it was going to be a little rough. Day one in my music education class, I was assigned a 14-page paper about myself. Writing that much about yourself felt pretty intimidating. But it ended up being fine, and I’ve really enjoyed the culture here.”

Thor McDonald, Alum
“I grew up in Greenwich, so I chose Ashland for both the proximity to home as well as the great middle-grade education program. I’m a diversity scholar, so I was able to work in the office of Military & Veteran Services as a freshman. I stayed on working with that team after that semester, and it was great.”

Lylianna Antonio, Alum
“As an early childhood education major at AU, it was great to have the opportunity to work in a kindergarten classroom at Edison Elementary here in Ashland last year. And as you start making those personal connections, you can build real relationships with these children. After just a few weeks, even the quietest, shyest ones start giving you a hug any time they see you!”

Sydney Gilmore, Alum
