David Herlihy, 19, is an Elementary Education major from Howland, ME. He chose the University of Maine at Presque Isle (UMPI) after transferring from Northern Maine Community College (NMCC), where he had already spent a year adjusting to living independently. With several friends already at UMPI and a love for Presque Isle itself, he felt continuing his education here was the right fit. Prior college experience made the transition to UMPI smooth. He\u2019s most excited to join the Education Club this semester, where he hopes to connect with others in his major and prepare for his future career. He set a personal goal to make the Dean\u2019s List every year, a challenge he\u2019s determined to meet through hard work and consistency. If he had to describe UMPI in three words, David would choose interesting, exciting, and eventful. He\u2019s been pleasantly surprised by the variety of students and their majors, and he appreciates how activities on campus bring people together in fun and meaningful ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
