"Choosing VU was really a no brainer for me since I live 30 minutes away and have
never really stayed away from home for longer than a week. Another thing that attracted
me to the school was the class sizes and how small they were since I came from a smaller
high school I felt more comfortable with being in smaller classes with less people.I chose my major because I fell in love with photography a couple years ago when I
was a part of my high school yearbook staff. I have always wanted to be able to help
tell someone鈥檚 story through my photography and now that I have been studying photojournalism,
I can write the stories to accompany the photos.With my major I plan to graduate in the spring of 2021 and work for a local newspaper
and hopefully move on to a larger newspaper or even a magazine. Another hope of mine
is to be able to help out at a children鈥檚 hospital and help entertain the kids and
tell their stories to the world through photos and their family's stories. I believe
all of this will be possible for me because of my degree I will receive from Vincennes
University and I can鈥檛 wait to become a VU alumni myself."

their strengths.鈥淓veryone has talent,鈥� he said. 鈥淭he question is how do we find it
and how do we nurture it."
