Favorite Thing About KU:
Our picturesque campus - I fell in love with it the first time I saw it. Even now, the buildings and landscape of Mount Oread fill me with a sense of pride and awe.

Favorite Thing About Lawrence:
It's such an awesome college town. I've traveled to Alaska, New Zealand, and dozens of far-away places in between, and Lawrence is still my favorite place on earth!

People Would Be Surprised to Know That:
I possess uncanny navigational skills. They just don't always kick in at the opportune times.

Favorite Tradition at KU:
Teddy Roosevelt once said the Rock Chalk Chant was the greatest college chant he'd ever heard. Hear it in Allen Fieldhouse once, and you'll agree!
