Exercise Science
The Exercise Science department has prepared me for my future career by giving me many hands-on experiences with equipment in the field. Cal Lutheran has exceptional labs that allow us to collect a lot of data! I also have had the opportunity to complete directed research, which helped me to better understand and conduct research.

Music
I think it’s important for students to have the opportunity to see the faculty perform. They become aware of what goes into performance: repertory selection, planning, rehearsal, and, most important, practice. This becomes part of the culture they inhabit and a model for what is necessary for success in the arts.

Psychology
My favorite experience was becoming a Departmental Assistant. I loved working on psychology-related tasks and projects, getting to know fellow students and professors who have become great friends and mentors, and challenging myself to apply for the Honors Program, which I wouldn’t have heard of otherwise.
