This was a surprise given that I was confident that I would be an Engineering major when applying to college. I expected to go through college in applied-math, and engineering courses. However, I found that the Mathematics and Computer Science departments were much more engaging to me, which led to my eventual declaration of a Mathematics major and a Data Science minor." "Coop, aka Café 77, is my favorite place on campus. Students of all years congregate between class periods to grab a snack and hang out. Oftentimes, I will sit in Coop if I have a long break to do work and talk to friends who briefly walk through. As a senior who lives off-campus, I have a profound appreciation for Coop because it represents the close-knit community that W&L fosters. No matter the time of day or the number of close friends that share your class schedule, there will always be an acquaintance that is happy to chat and say hey. Coop has provided me the opportunity to get to know more of my peers in a casual, comfortable setting."
