REFLECTION QUESTIONCommunity Volunteer in my CommunityWhat is one thing you can do to help your community become more sustainable?
McKenzie Watts 3/30/2022 12:55 PMOver the weekend, I volunteered on campus to raise food for the Open Door Mission, a non-profit in Rochester that provides food, clothing, and shelter to the homeless. The group I volunteered with raised over 200 pounds of food for those in need. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Go for a Daily WalkHow do you experience your neighborhood or city differently when walking instead of driving?
McKenzie Watts 3/29/2022 4:18 PMI took a walk about campus today to go see squirrels. I love squirrels and didn't see them around very much where I grew up. I was able to get very up close and personal with a squirrel outside of Gosnell. He sat there for like 5 minutes eating a nut, and it was a very pleasant experience for me.
