Graduating in the spring with a degree in Biomedical Sciences (Pre-Med), Gavin Meadows (Hometown: Kitts, Ohio) enjoys his major for many reasons. One of them being the flexibility he has with the degree and what he could pursue in his future career.
鈥淢ore than anything, I love my major because it鈥檚 fun,鈥 he said. 鈥淚 genuinely enjoy my classes and the challenges involved.鈥
Growing up in a small town in southern Ohio, Meadows found himself drawn to attending a small college.
鈥淚t鈥檚 a small campus, so there are a lot of opportunities to get together with your peers and even your professors and have some very special moments,鈥 he said.
Involved on campus, Meadows is part of the Rotaract Club, the Pre-Med Club, the Chemistry Club, and the fraternity Tau Kappa Epsilon which he holds several positions in and has been able to plan events for other members.
鈥淚 have had a lot of great memories here that I couldn鈥檛 get from a large campus.鈥
Meadows is still deciding how he will use his degree in the future, but knows that his education has prepared him for medical school or a professional career in another field. He鈥檚 looking forward to discovering more about where this degree 鈥 and the skills he鈥檚 built from campus organizations 鈥 can take him after graduation.
