 My 2 Cents’ Worth: Aha!
“The best advice I can give to each of you seeking that sense of clarity is to visit campuses, meet the people who make a particular school unique, and basically get to know your prospective schools from the inside out.” Read Kim’s advice. Hometown: Seattle, WA
Education: King's High School; Seattle Pacific University (major: business administration with an economics emphasis, B.A.)
Favorite Seattle restaurant: Mondello Ristorante Italiano in Seattle's Magnolia Neighborhood
A trip I'd like to take: World Cup in South Africa 2010

Favorite sports team: Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders
Book I'm reading now: Freakonomics
Favorite movie: Totally depends on my mood!
Favorite thing about SPU: I love that SPU is everything great about a small school: tight knit campus, familiar faces, great relationships with professors, small classes, beautiful park-like landscape; AND you get all of this in a big city with all sorts of great things to discover: great restaurants, internship opportunities, plays, musicals, concerts, museums, shopping, and a Starbucks on every corner!
Advice for high school/transfer students: Visit! You can learn all sorts of great information about schools through brochures and searching online, but nothing compares to actually stepping on campus and experiencing it for yourself. Also, start the application process early!
