Why choose Simpson?

I think I have been asked this question at least a million times being a Student Ambassador so I felt I should share with you why I am so passionate about Simpson and some of the things I do here.

When your looking at schools to go to for college your obviously thinking about price, location, people, and all that good stuff. I toured all sorts of colleges my senior year and I never really felt as if it was for me. Simpson had been coming to my high school at least 2 or 3 times my senior year so I decided to go visit. As soon as I got there and walked into College Hall I just got this awesome feeling of being comfortable and relaxed and that's where it all starts really. When I finally made my decision to come to Simpson I based it on the fact that when I came here I got a sense from the student body that they were very passionate about the school and everything that went on, I also got that feeling from the administration as well as faculty. I LOVED the small class sizes and super nice professors that I knew I would get to know better with my four years at Simpson. I came back and visited again and it was no doubt in my mind that this was exactly where I wanted to be.

Since I have came here to Simpson I have gotten involved in the greek community. PRSSA (Public Relations Student Society of America), Jr. Greek recruitment chair, CAB, a Class Senator for Student Government, and Student Support Services. Not only have I obviously gotten smarter here at Simpson (we hope), I feel as if I have figured out who I am, somewhat, lol, as a person and have made the most amazing friends I have ever had. So when your lookiing for colleges, if you just seem to not be able to find the RIGHT ONE, keep lookin, it's definitely out there somewhere!
