The University Times staff is interviewing students across campus as part of our “campus voices” project. Staff writers are profiling faces fresh and familiar to forge stronger relationships within our campus community. Check the UTimes website each week to see each new profile!

Griffith, who attends various campus events, analyzed what made UMPI stand out above other colleges.
“UMPI is a small community,” she explained. “Everybody knows each other. Large colleges have more to do, but UMPI is more personalized.”
