What do I do at Iowa Western?
I have the joy of having dual jobs at IWCC. During half of the year I am working diligently at my desk helping new students figure out what classes they should take to start their college career. The rest of my time is spent on the road traveling to different high school and college fairs sharing exciting information to prospective students about IWCC! Yay!

IWCC Stuff

Things I am looking forward to at IWCC:
This is my first year so I am looking forward to attending all of the sporting events, especially cheering on the new football team. I am excited that I get to be a part of students’ college experience from first enrolling them to watching them walk across the stage at graduation.

Favorite Link:
Staying up-to-date with IWCC student blogs on the Captain’s Blog page. I enjoy reading the students different stories and experiences; they are sometimes outrageous and bring back my own college memories.

Favorite HULU or YouTube clip:
My favorite youtube video is “Christian the Lion”. It is about a lion that grew up with people and then got released back into the wild. The end is very surprising! Check it out!
