has been your most memorable experience on Calvin's track team?
"Most memorable experience
with the team was the devotions a number of us track girls did after dinner
in Knollhole. I'll miss those times. Also all the support from fans from
the team that came up to watch us at nationals. Our team is awesome. And
running around the infield cheering on Calvin distance runners, that was
awesome. So many more good times, but if this paragraph is too long it
will look intimidating and no one will read it."
Why
did you decide to attend Calvin College?
"One of the main reasons
I wanted to go to Calvin was because I knew it was a good Christian school,
with dedicated professors, students, and coaches. Calvin is also a big
family school for me and I had heard great things about its academic and
athletic programs. So far it has surpassed my expectations. BIG C'S IN
THE HOUSE!!!!!"
