I chose Fisher actually because
I had a meeting with Dr. Picardo
who was the head of the biology department
and she showed me around the labs, she let me wear a lab coat
I thought that was really cool
and she was really nice, very kind and caring
I could tell she really cared about what students were here and she was interested in showing me all the details
of the biology department
which was different from other colleges I visited
they didn’t seem as interested as they did here
So that’s why I chose Fisher
Well I always knew I wanted to do something in the medical field
for a while I wanted to be a pediatrician
and that actually grew into the dental field
I have a lot of relative in the dental field
and I’m actually going to UB dental next year
and I knew that biology was the first step in my goal of going to dental school
When I started out here
the first club I joined was the Teddi Dance for Love
and I was a committee member for two years
then when I was a sophomore I took the peer advising class
and it all just kind of had a snowball effect from there
I was a peer advisor and I got into student government association
my junior year I was the secretary and then my senior year I am the vice president of operations for SGA
I’ve been a peer advisor for two years
I was on the orientation team as an orientation team member for one year
this past year I served as a student orientation coordinator
and the past two years I’ve also been the developmental captain for the Teddi Dance for Love
My favorite memory would have to be everything from SGA
The past two years have been really great from executive boards
we’ve gone on retreats to Philadelphia and Virginia Beach
where we got to meet up with different SGAs from different colleges
and I really got to know the members from my executive board
and we have a lot of meetings but there’s also a lot of fun times as well
on those retreats but also just being in the office has been great
and its given me a lot of good meetings with senate
senate all our executive board meetings different meetings that have gone on for hours and hours on end
but it's always been great
My favorite spot is right here in the SGA office
you can get a lot of work done here but you can also procrastinate a lot in here
because a lot of my friends do hangout in here
The computers outside are great
as well as having the office in here to get stuff done for SGA
so it definitely is my favorite spot to hangout
but I also get to work on a lot of school workout in here as well
In two words I would describe my experience here as very rewarding
I’ve had a great academic four years in the biology department
they’ve really prepared me for dental school and taking the dental admissions test
but also the involvement I’ve gotten here at Fisher was fantastic
I was never involved in high school
and it wasn’t till really my junior year I started getting involved
and I wish I’d gotten involved sooner because its been such a great and rewarding part of my four years here at Fisher
