If I were a Cottey student…I would embrace all of the experiences Cottey has to offer and put myself out there to experience new things. Cottey allows young women to experience a once in a lifetime education in a close community with the support of everyone around them.

Favorite spot on campus? The library’s writing center!

What sets Cottey apart from other college and universities? The determination and encouragement to empower everyone here. Cottey is also an amazing mix of history and contemporary!

If I were a Cottey student…I would take advantage of all of the art classes available that weren’t part of my degree! Being creative is my go-to outlet, so having a chance to not only take a step forward with my degree, but also learn some new creative abilities is a fantastic opportunity (and something that not every college has)!

Favorite spot on campus? The workout room (and pool) in Hinkhouse! When I was a student at Cottey from 2017-2021, I took to the water like a fish and loved the idea of being able to be in a safe place to work out at!

What sets Cottey apart from other colleges and universities? Cottey has had the Peer Empowerment Program for quite a while now, and it’s an amazing resource for students on and off campus! College and life can be hard, but here at Cottey, there are people who can, and will, support the students to make sure they’re not only successful, but healthy in a mental and emotional way!

Hometown? El Dorado Springs, Missouri

Degree? Bachelor of Arts in Secondary English Education at Cottey College!

Best place to visit around Nevada? Precision Coffee Shop! Some of the best coffee I have ever had (and they carry gluten-free options, as well!)

If I were a Cottey student today… again, I would want to experience all the new things that Cottey has to offer since my time here as a student!

Favorite spot on campus? My favorite spot on campus would have to be the courtyard next to the peace pole. It sits near the middle of the campus so you can relax, swing and just engulf yourself in the Cottey atmosphere.

What sets Cottey apart from other college and universities? I grew up in a large city and attended a co-ed college prior to attending Cottey– without a doubt I can say what makes Cottey different is how personal it is. You get the ability to know your professors and peers on a personal level and never feel like “just another student in the grade book”.
