Name: Katy Hannon Hometown: Budd Lake, New JerseyMajor: CommunicationsOn Campus Involvement: Special Events Chair (CAB), Senior Marshal, Peer Leader, Layout Design (Yearbook)Past Internships/Jobs: Event Planning Intern for the Lar Lubovitch Dance CompanyBest memory at MMC: Becoming a Peer Leader changed my life, as well as joining Campus Activities Board. These two opportunities have given me so many late nights, early mornings, and insane belly laughs with some of the best people I ever could have hoped to meet in the last year and a half. Shout out to my PLs (especially Hailey Haywood and Ryan Atwell) for showing me how to live and for keeping me young and fearless.Fav Class You’ve Taken: Comm. in a new “Genderation” with Professor Jenny Dixon. It was literally the safest space for anybody to learn about the world, different genders, and different sexualities that you may not understand.Advice for prospective students: Join on-campus organizations. Get involved. I’m not saying that you need to joing ALL of the clubs, but you’ll never know whether or not you like something unless you try it. Marymount has 33+ active clubs and ANYBODY (seriously) is able to create a club of their particular interests (Harry Potter inspired a really cool club on campus), and you should take advantage of these opportunities while you have them. Also- being involved means you’ll know people OUTSIDE of your major and maybe even your comfort zone. Half my best friends aren’t Comm. Majors and I love that we can share different perspectives on life together. Finally- being involved means being in-the-know. AKA, you’ll always know when, where, and how to get free food.
