Meet theatre and communication major Sarah Studzinski
"In high school I did EVERYTHING. I was one of those students who participated in marching band, theatre, show choir, honors classes, Girl Scouts, and community volunteer activities. When looking for a college, I wanted the opportunity to explore my many passions. The College of Liberal Arts at Purdue has made that possible. It provides an arena to learn, grow, and explore. Find a place to explore your passions."The staff of the African American Studies and Research Center
