Finding Yourself at W&J College

Maybe you know your goal is medical school. Or maybe you're not sure yet where you're headed. Both paths are possible at W&J College. Here, you'll discover limitless connections. You might uncover connections between cuisine and communication that will make you a better cook and a better doctor, or unearth a passion for wildlife conservation through one of the student clubs.

What or whom was your favorite class or professor? Why?

My favorite course at W&J was by far the advanced lab in social cognition, taught by Dr. Bradshaw. I enjoyed this course because she held her students to a high standard, which really helped me to improve my research skills, as well as my writing and reading of psychological research. I didn’t know I could perform at such an advanced level until this course and will forever be grateful for Dr. Bradshaw.

“W&J has given me multiple opportunities, both inside and outside of the classroom, which have prepared me,” Giampa said. “And this internship has been an invaluable experience. Going into it, I knew that I loved looking at old documents, but in nearing its end, I have found a passion in the research that can be done with these documents.”

My proudest accomplishment at W&J has been being a LINK Mentor. As a first year student, my LINK Mentor had a huge impact on me and I am so happy that I have been able to serve as a LINK Mentor in my senior year.
