After my high school experience of being the only deaf person in a large public school and feeling like an outsider, I knew I wanted a different experience in college. RIT is the perfect fit for me because it gives me the ability to be part of both the Deaf world and the hearing world, and I am forever grateful for that. I could not find this kind of opportunity at any other college. Because of RIT’s unique environment I have widened my social connections, and I believe this is what is helping me become successful both inside and outside the classroom.
