What is your proudest accomplishment over the past year?
I took all of my courses last year online from my home in Slovenia, and I would consider it the hardest semester of my entire college career. I am proud that even though it was challenging, I did not back down. At the same time, I managed to still remain involved in the student chapter of the American Chemical Society and apply to graduate schools.
What advice do you have for incoming students?
Use your time as a first-year student to explore all of the different things St. John’s has to offer and then decide what you really want to pursue.

The White House is reportedly being prompted to rethink its coronavirus vaccination strategy as falling inoculation rates spark fears that “straggler” pockets in the country might become breeding grounds for more dangerous virus variants.
