What is your favorite aspect of Wartburg?
I have the opportunity to teach several classes within the Essential Education curriculum. I work with students from a variety of majors and I love that part of my job.

Memorable Moments
I had a student who really struggled his first year. Working with him over all four years,I saw him transform from a student who was insecure about his abilities to a student who was an articulate and confident scholar.

What does "be orange" mean to you?
It means you have a commitment to be an active member of the Wartburg community, especially with the students we educate.
