Favorite Place on or near Campus: Near campus, Pancake Pantry for their sweet potato pancakes but when considering healthy choices, my favorite place on campus is FitRec for the group fitness classes (cycling & bootcamp).

Self-Care Tip: Self-care is anything that brings you joy, makes you smile, and allows you to slow down (even if just for a moment); giving us capacity to engage in all the things we HAVE to do.
