Meet A Loyalist Student
CRAIG
Broadcast Journalism, Second Year
Hometown
Bowmanville, ON
What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
Hang out with friends, watch a lot of TV and movies and go out on the town.
Extracurricular Activities/How are you involved on campus?
I'm really involved with the Loyalist Student Government. Some would say, I'm the leader of Loyalist Student Government. I'm also an RA (Residence Assistant) at Residence.
My favourite things about Loyalist
It's like a grown-up high school.
My Orientation experience
Orientation Week is a blast. If I can say anything that is...attend Beach Day. I didn't the first year and I regretted it. In year 2 when I went I regretted it even more.
Why I enjoy getting involved with Student Government?
Because it's a great experience and has made my second year at Loyalist a blast. Also it helps me get to know a lot more people.
Why I enjoy working on campus
Simply because you don't have to waste any of your income driving or taking the bus.
My favourite place to hang out on campus
I love the Student Centre...mainly because it has Tim Hortons.
Why I enjoy living in Residence?
It's sooo close to the school compared to anywhere else and you can even run home between classes and nap.
Why I chose Loyalist/program?
Because its not far from home and I heard a lot of good things about Broadcast Journalism.
My favourite Loyalist professor
Mary Jollimore
My favourite Loyalist service
Cafeteria...who doesn't like Pizza Pizza or Coyote Jacks?!
My favourite pub night
St. Patty's Day was awesome...Hedley was good as well.
What advice do you have to offer students on staying balanced between their academic responsibilities and social life?
Homework before social life. It's really easy to stay caught up with school work, but its really easy to get behind as well.
Why I recommend Loyalist to other students?
Its fun! Small and easy to make a ton of friends.
My post-graduate plans
Take over for Peter Mansbridge or Ron MacLean.
