I am who I am because of Eve
Posted Mar 18, 2008
Before Freshman Camp 2006, as the counselors prepared for the newest class of students, Eve Carson came up to me and said, "Hi Andrew, we haven't met, I'm Eve." The rest is history. My freshman year was difficult to say the least. I had trouble getting involved with groups and felt as if I could never get a break. I resigned myself to the idea that the school was just too big for one student to make a difference. Then I met Eve. After three days of Freshman Camp, we traded numbers and started a remarkable friendship.
