Featured Quotes:

And then when I got to the university, I took a political science class, and I was an acting major at the time, and it was just fascinating to me and it was something that really just kind of drew me in. I switched my major and I started kind of thinking more along those lines, and so, when the opportunity came to get involved in student government, it seemed like a really cool way to practice a lot of the principles that I had been learning.
Jeff Carr, SUU Student Body President

I went to Zion National Park just last weekend and I try and do a hike or tennis every week as much as I possibly can, and you would really miss that if you were just looking down at a screen. You’d kind of get a fake reality, I guess. Something that’s not really there. And students need to put down the phone sometimes and just look at what’s in front of them.
Chris Westwood
