Let’s meet Maggie, who’s gonna tell us about the Tusculum student experience. She’s a senior majoring in English and History. When you spend the majority of your time on campus, you not only wanna study but enjoy your downtime. If we’re talking about someone who is heavily involved in campus life, Maggie is the epitome. You’re up, Maggie.

– Thanks Alex. Thanks to my high school English and History teachers, I knew that I was ready for college. I needed a place where I could explore the subjects I was passionate about and also enjoy student life, and Tusculum University has been that place for me. I’ve embraced this opportunity and so can you. We prioritize our education at Tusculum University, but we also have fun. Student life at Tusculum is buzzing. There’s always a fun event coming. Everything from whitewater rafting to nature hikes to bonfires to dinner at the President’s house awaits. You can cheer for one of our 23 teams. You can participate in eSports and gaming or you can participate in intramurals throughout the year. I also organized the first ever denim day at TU. A day dedicated to uplifting sexual assault survivors and informing students on the subject. We have such a welcoming campus environment and you can quickly have a meaningful impact. All student organizations have a space to thrive, and so do you. Groups such as the Student Government Association, which I’m the president of, have enabled students to grow their leadership skills and connect with their peers. One of the best parts of joining the Tusculum family is an event to help new students transition to college life. Pioneer WOW is a 10 day experience to immerse students in all the amazing and fun opportunities at Tusculum. I’ve assisted with Pioneer WOW three times now, and each time I’m more impressed. Tusculum has taught me about the importance of relationships and balancing goals and ambitions with having a blast. Without Tusculum, I would never have advanced this far. Whatever your dreams are, Tusculum helps you achieve them. Giving it back to you, Alex.

– That was amazing. Maggie is a perfect example of how students can come to Tusculum and immediately play a vital role in campus life. You don’t have to wait around for your turn at Tusculum. It’s one of the benefits of Tusculum being a smaller university. Thanks for sharing, Maggie.
