Ripon Random Ten

So, I havent updated in a while, and I apologize to any readers for that!! I have been super busy and have made it a priority to update the blog, but haven't gotten around to it. For today, I decided I am going to write a list of ten random and spontaneous things I like about Ripon! And here.. we.. go..

10. Amanda Prouty. Little did I know that working with such a fun girl could make working in the Admission Office such a wild and fun hour or two out of my day. (Yes, I was talked into writing this!)

9. The Pub. Man, that place brings back a lot of good memories. Playing pool, eating breakfast, lunch, dinner with the group all the time. The breakfast risers they have there are so good, and I have now made myself hungry!

8. Intramurals. I love reliving the glory days of high school sports (football, basketball), as well as making new glory days (volleyball, soccer)

7. Initimate Campus. It's really nice not to have to walk a mile to every class from your room, as well as dining options too.

6. Ripon Athletics. Love me some Red Hawk sports! Huge supporter of the football and basketball teams. As a baseball player myself, the support shown by fellow athletic teams is very cool.

5. Professors. It is very cool in my opinion that here at Ripon, you get to know your professors pretty closely, and you are not just a number to them.

4. The four seasons. Part of why I love Wisconsin is that we get to see all four seasons here at Ripon. Falls are gorgeous, winters are winter. Cold and snowy. Spring is extremely refreshing. And we see bits and peices of summer at the beginning and end of years. Oh.. and Wisconsin has the Super Bowl Champs in the Pack!

3. The Admission Office. I have made some great contacts over the last two years working here, and this experience has helped me out in all sorts of aspects of my college experience.

2. Senior year. Only a litte over two months left! I love Ripon, but graduation is just an exciting time in a persons life. I have no idea what my future holds for me, so it is exciting to see whats next!

1. Ripon College students music selection. Weird number 1, I know. But here at Ripon, I get a taste of everything. I love country, alternative rock, classic rock, and some newer pop stuff. But you meet so many people that listen to such diverse music that is almost refreshing.

Thats all for my Ripon Random Ten. Hope all is well!

  1. Gotta say that number 10 is my favorite. And I also feel like I somewhat inspired number 1. Me and my lovely pandora stations that bring such excitement to the Admission Office. - All joking aside, this is a great list!
