“I Chose UWO’
Theme: Discovery, Inc.
I chose this theme because UW Oshkosh helped me uncover things about myself I previously never knew. UW Oshkosh was so foreign to me when I first visited, but now it is strikingly familiar and comfortable. I’ve learned how to adapt to a new environment, relate to different types of people and overcome tall obstacles. This essay highlights my feelings when I first arrived on campus compared to three years later.
