Why Did You Choose To Become A Badger?

Why did you choose to become a Badger?
I chose to attend UW-Madison primarily because it is one of the best institutions for biochemistry in the United States but also because I spent a lot of time in Madison and in Monona as a child with my parents and grandmother so the area already feels like home.

What are you looking forward to while at UW-Madison?
What I'm looking forward to most at Madison is being a part of a community where I can learn pretty much anything within walking distance of where I live. I'm especially looking forward to accessing more specific realms of knowledge such as plant biochemistry as well as native speakers of languages that my high school didn't offer such as Finnish and Mandarin Chinese. Ultimately, I'm looking …show more content…

While I have grown everything from basic houseplants and vegetable gardens to more unusual tropical plants, I really enjoy trying to grow bonsai and orchids because they offer me a challenge and a chance to experiment with different growing methods. Because of this, my roommate should expect a few plants to be inhabiting our room with us.

What is your major and intended career?
For my major course of study, I plan to pursue a degree in Biochemistry from CALS with my ultimate goal of earning a Ph.D. As far as my career path, I hope to conduct research in either an academic or private setting concerning health and medicine or agriculture to incorporate my interest in plants.

What are your ideals and beliefs?
While I'm not formally religious, I'm still somewhat spiritual in beliefs. One of my favorite classes in school was AP Literature because my teacher focused on a philosophical approach to literary analysis to prepare us for the test. This opened up my views to a wide variety of beliefs and ideals as our discussions emphasized being able to argue effectively from multiple perspectives — even if we didn't agree with them

Taking my career choice into consideration was key in my decision which for most people is a long, difficult, and tedious process. The university I will be attending next fall is Washington University in St. Louis. I immediately fell in love with the school as a result of the academic programs, its community, and the classic Midwestern hospitality that I have gotten used to after having lived most of my life in Nebraska.

Ever since I was in the fourth grade, I have wanted to go UW Madison because I thought Bucky the Badger was cool.
