Student's Pictures and Backgrounds


	Brakae Campbell I am from McCall, Idaho. My graduating class was about 58 students and my high school had 250 to 300 students. I am majoring in psychology with plans to be a high school counselor. I chose LC for many different reasons including the location, the size, and the cost of tuition and living on campus. It is a really pretty campus and almost impossible to get lost and the people here are really friendly and helpful. The class sizes are great, I love having 20 to 30 students in a class compared to 200 to 300 in a class like a big university does. Some of the activities I am involved in are Residence Hall Association (RHA) and Warrior Zone. Outside of school I volunteer at the Willow Center, for grieving children. I love living on campus! It is a great way to get involved and meet new people. I like the idea of always being near campus and not having to commute every morning. I also like the fact that I pay for my housing with my tuition so I don’t have to worry about making monthly rent payments. Some things I would have liked to known before living on campus and coming to LC are all the activities and clubs there are for students as well as the many things that I can do for free off campus with my student ID card.
	I’m Lisa Patel and I am from Eagle, Idaho and I went to Eagle High school. I lived in a pretty small town, but my school was a 5A school so it was pretty big with 300 students in my graduating class. I chose LCSC because of the Lewiston weather and I wanted a ‘home away from home’ which I have been able to create here at LC! I’m currently involved in RHA (residence hall association) and I’m a part of the Explorer’s team through New Student Recruitment as well. I like going to LC because of the small class size and the teacher interaction we have that most larger schools don’t have. I like living on campus because I feel I’m closer to my friends and surrounded by people that help me with school and studying. If I was an incoming freshman I would want to live on campus, if it wasn’t for living on campus I don’t think I would be so involved on campus and would never have met so many great people!
	My name is Rowdy Fisher. I am from Caldwell, Idaho. My town is very large and spacious, and largely populated, but it is mostly fields and suburbs. I went to Vallivue High School, with around 1,300 students and graduated with about 400 of them. I am a first year student and currently majoring in Pre-Medicine under Biology and when I graduate I plan to be an Orthodontist. The reason why I chose LCSC for my higher education is for a few reasons. I love that it is a small school contrary to my large high school. The class sizes are small so I can have close relationships with my professors and vise versa. The campus is also small so everything is accessible and not too far to walk from class to class. The cost of tuition was a major factor, being the lowest priced four year school with great financial aid. I also love my dorm, Clearwater Hall. The town of Lewiston is pretty neat, and it’s also near Moscow where some of my friends go to the University of Idaho, so I am close enough to visit. Lastly, one of my favorite things about this college are the events that are planned for students living on campus. You are never bored if you put yourself out there! One of the activities I am involved in is LCSC’s Explorers program where I am a tour guide of the campus. It’s nice to meet families interested in coming here. I have been active in some intramural sports including: Dodge ball, Volleyball (in which my team won the championship by the way!), and Tennis. I am also starting to get involved in the Resident Hall Association where we use our budget and plan events for the residents. One of the things I love about LC is their indoor tennis courts. They are open to students most of the time and free, not to mention. Some of my classes are in a newly built building, Sacagawea Hall where there are nice new labs and class rooms, which is very accommodating. I love the mild weather here, since I can wear shorts at times, when in my home town, it would be snowing. One of the coolest things about LC and Lewiston in general, is the major friendliness of their residents. The people are so nice and polite here!

	Hello, my name is Jeffrey Lowndes and I’m from Vancouver, Washington. Vancouver has a couple hundred thousand people living in it and the surrounding area so it is a different scenario then Lewiston. I am currently a Sophomore in the Sports Administration program and the first attraction for me to LCSC was the tennis team. I am on the LCSC tennis team and it has been a great experience so far. Although Lewiston is pretty different than where I’m from, I have found I like it a lot. There is a great group of students here and there also is plenty to do around the town. The campus is really close to the river, which is a nice place to swim around. The college is close to downtown which makes for a nice selection of activities to do as well.
	My name is Josie Bryan and I am from Meridian, ID which has a population of about 68,000 people where I had a graduating class of 350. I am a first year student and a nursing major and I chose LCSC because of the small class sizes and I loved the feeling of being in college the campus brought. Some of the things I like to do are work out on campus and run the bridges. I am an Explorer for New Student Recruitment where I give tours to new students. I love baseball and LC has a great baseball team. I like that everyone knows everyone and is for the most part kind! It is nice to live on campus because I go to the events and I meet LOTS of people and always have someone around! One thing I would have liked to know before I came to LCSC is that you come to college to have fun, yet know you also HAVE to study to keep up with your classes.

	Hi, my name is Strider Burns and I am from Colfax, Washington. I chose LCSC because of the Kinesiology program. I am currently on the Track team and when I have the time I help with RHA, compete in all the Inter-murals I can, and am in the kinesiology club. I really like how the campus is small, allows you to meet a lot of people, and gives you plenty of time in between classes to go get food or coffee. Something I wish I knew before I came here is that I need to be organized in order to be successful.
