Why you chose Whitman
I chose Whitman because I felt cared for the moment I stepped on campus during my visit. The students and faculty are all incredibly friendly, and there are a vast amount of resources on campus, like the ARC and Counseling Center, that make student life easier.
Favorite things to do in Walla Walla
Going fishing at Bennington Lake. Also, eating at all the great restaurants. My favorite place to eat is at Walla Walla Indian Cuisine - It’s the best Indian food I have ever had.
Favorite spot on campus
