“As you leave the nest, what is one piece of advice you would give to underclassmen students?”

    “To take risks and step outside of your comfort zone. don’t be afraid and try something new or give someone a chance. Sometimes you gotta step out of your comfort zone and that’s when you grow the most.” -------------- “As graduation approaches in a few short days I reach out to freshman with one word of advice: get involved and take advantage of your surroundings here. Between Student Government, Greek life, Orientation, my Biology research and my two jobs, I have made the absolute greatest friends and connections at Keene that have changed me forever. Keene is what you make of it and I urge you all to learn and grow from the abundance of resources here.” Humans of KSC is presented by Jacob Paquin
    “One piece of advice I would pass onto those at Keene State College, and it might sound generic but is to savor and enjoy every moment you have here, it goes by in a flash. Take every moment you have to talk to somebody and learn a new story. Take the chance on something new that you might not do usually. Involve yourself as much as you can, there is a new way to grow at KSC at every turn. Grab that opportunity and give it everything you’ve got.” Humans of KSC is presented by Jacob Paquin
