How has the Upside-Down Curriculum enhanced your education?

The Upside-Down curriculum allowed me to find what I am passionate about. I started in Cybersecurity and Computer Networking and was able to take classes in that major which showed me that it was not the path I would like to go down. The teachers and classes were amazing, but it wasn’t something that I felt passionate about. Since everyone takes major-specific classes, I was able to talk to friends and my advisor to determine what might be a better path. When I switched majors, I was better able to specify exactly what I was interested in because I got to take classes in that major right away.

What¡¯s the best thing about living on campus?

My favorite part about living on campus are the communities you make. Most of the best friends I’ve made at Champlain came from my first year in Pearl Hall. A couple of friends have been added through the years, but my experience in my first-year hall will always be some of the best times that I have had at college.

What advice do you have for students thinking about coming to Champlain for college?

Keep an open mind! You may think you know exactly what you want to do in the future, and then you’ll come to Champlain and see all of the different opportunities that interest you. Take people up on those opportunities. Who knows, you might find something that you are exceptionally passionate about!
