为什么历史?
教学是 integral for a comprehensive understanding of the past, 现在, 和未来的, providing a foundation for critical thinking and analytical skills. 通过历史, we gain insights about human experiences, 文化发展, 以及社会模式, learning from both successes and failures to make informed decisions and address contemporary challenges. The study and teaching of history also equips individuals with a broader perspective on different cultures, fostering a sense of civic responsibility. 在本质上, my choice to engage with history reflects a commitment to 个人 development and a desire to contribute positively to society.
克服不确定性
Overcoming challenges as a first-generation college student and navigating the transition as a transfer student 现在ed initial hurdles. The shift from high school to college was daunting, marked by uncertainty and a lack of clarity about my path. The fear of the unknown loomed large, and I found myself grappling with no clear direction. However, upon arrival at Mount Union, a transformative shift occurred. The support and guidance I received here not only rectified my mindset but exceeded my expectations. Faculty and staff like John Recchiuti, 特里萨·戴维斯, 玛莎Muckleroy, 基督教洛佩兹, 凯特琳Reash, and Ryan Riggs have all shaped my college journey for the better.

My advice for high school students exploring colleges is to consider academics, 校园文化, and 个人 preferences; I was immediately struck by the genuine warmth and friendliness of people at Mount. The atmosphere, faculty, staff, and students all make it feel like home. 除了, the student life and hands-on opportunities I've taken advantage of have greatly impacted my academic, 个人, 职业生涯.
My favorite has been the chance to travel to Columbus and participate in an Ohio Teaching Conference. The event proved to be an exceptionally fascinating and valuable experience where eminent insights gained and the connections forged during this conference helped me continue building my teaching skills. 那趟旅行的方方面面, from the engaging sessions to the meaningful connections, 真的很了不起!
