Quote:
"The people that make up the community at Emory was the gamechanger for me.  My desire to be part of a prestigious program where I can learn and grow from some of the most brilliant, diverse and hard working students and faculty members is what drove me to choose Emory.  After visiting campus and meeting my future teammates, I could not help but fll in love with the idea of sharing my last two years surrounded by such a passionate, self-driven and elite group of girls and coaches."
