What I Love Most About Stetson

My most memorable Stetson experience happened at the beginning of my sophomore year. It was sorority bid day and the first student I ever gave a tour to came up to me. We had chosen different sororities, but that wasn't what mattered. She said to me "I just want to let you know that you are one of the biggest reasons why I am here. I wanted to be a part of what you showed me you loved. I wanted to get involved on campus because you were able to show me what this place had to offer." She gave me a hug and we parted ways, but that has stuck with me and has easily become one of my favorite moments at Stetson. Knowing that my hour long tour had been able to show a stranger how much this university had to offer gave me a feeling of pride like no other.
