Today’s #LionVoices feature is Sophomore Psychology & Marketing major, Cole Wright. Cole is from Bentonville, Ïã½¶ÊÓÆµAPP and is the current Director of Marketing for the Residence Hall Association.
Cole said affordability was critical to his decision to attend UAFS the most. “I got offered a place in the Honors Program. After talking with my mom and college advisor, I was convinced, and I really enjoy it here.� Cole also said that the part of campus that influenced his life the most was the programs it offered. “RHA completely changed my career plans. I came in wanting to be a counselor, and now I want to go into marketing.�
“UAFS has given me experience and skills, through jobs such as RHA and being a Student Conduct Officer, to pursue different leadership and professional goals down the road.� He also spoke on how UAFS is helping him prepare for his longer-term goals “I didn’t grow up with a lot of money. By being here at UAFS, I will be able to provide my future self and family a good life.�
Cole says he is most proud of the people he finds on campus. “The faculty is awesome, and I have found some of the smartest people I’ve ever known here.�
