Hello! My name is Amelia Randell, and I'm here to tell you about my Arrupe College experience.

My plans after graduation:
I will be continuing at Loyola University Chicago.

What does it mean to go to a Jesuit Institution?
It means feeling included and growing together despite differences. Even as a non-religious person, the Jesuit values have taught me to how to develop as a person and be there for others in meaningful ways.

What professor should a new student absolutely take a class with and why?
Dr. Alvarez because he will help you develop skills that will help you as a student in all your courses and teach history in ways that are enjoyable and enlightening.

Where is your favorite place on campus and why?
The study rooms because it was a place where I could be alone and get my work done, or a collaborative space where I got to hang out with friends and work on my course materials.

What is some advice you would give an incoming freshman?
Enjoy your time but also prepare for the future. Make choices that will help you do both.
