Why did you join the Wellness LLC?
I joined the WLLC because keeping the different aspects my life balanced is an important part of who I am. I want to live around people who also have the desire to be healthy in multiple ways.
What have been your favorite Wellness LLC events?
My favorite LLC event so far was our fall retreat. It was fun to be in the mountains to get to know the people I'm living with. Outside the LLC, I go to a lot of concerts at the Newman Center. My favorite so far was Benjamin Verdery, a classical guitarist, whose show ranged from Strauss to Jimi Hendrix to an original piece dedicated to the Dalai Lama. It was about as close as I get to a religious experience.
