My advice to students searching for a college...

Find what feels best for you! It is your college experience, and you should make the most of this time in your life!

Favorite thing to do in the area...

Snowboarding (and falling on) the slopes at Sugar/Beech Mountain, and explore the hiking trails on Beech Mountain! Also hiking up to the cross on South Campus, best view on campus!

Most memorable Lees-McRae experience...

Building snowmen with my best friend and residents on a snow day!

Why I chose Lees-McRae...

The beautiful scenery and the individualized academic environment. I know my professors and my professors know me, which I love!
