Why Wittenberg: “The first thing that always comes to my mind is community. To me, Wittenberg is what it is because of the people on campus. I have made amazing friends that I will have the rest of my life and have found amazing relationships and mentors in my professors and the staff. I love how supportive students are of each other and how people always say hello as we pass each other on campus.” 

1. A Stack of Letters/Notes I Have Received While in College: Writing and receiving letters is one of my favorite things in the whole world. My friends and I write letters to each other as a form of encouragement, and I have kept all of them. To me, they truly represent the community I have on campus.
2. My Kappa Delta Letters: My first year of college I joined Kappa Delta, and it has given me amazing friends and memories over the past four years. 
3. A Union Board Mug: I was a member of Union Board for all four years of college, and it allowed me to get to know many different parts of campus and gave me skills that will be very useful in a future job. 
4. My Study Bible: Throughout all of my religion classes, my study Bible got a lot of use. It was also useful in helping me prepare for youth lessons I wrote for a local church. 
5. My Notebook: I would not have made it throughout college without my notebook. I keep my ‘to do’ lists in it as well as meeting notes and funny quotes from conversations I have had. 
6. A Common Ground T-shirt: Campus ministries have played a very important part in my college experience, especially Common Ground and the Weaver Chapel Association. Campus ministries have been an amazing way for me to continue to grow in faith during college as well as give me amazing friends.
