![“I was attracted to COA because of the multidisciplinary approach to learning and the fact that students pave their own way towards their degree. I rarely enjoyed school until I got here, so I think I made the right decision. The fact that we’re on Mount Desert Island was also a huge draw. I’m studying education and plan to get my teaching certificate. I’m also focusing on creative writing, and I’ll take some music courses along the way. I’m taking audio production/engineering this term, which I’m excited about. . “I enjoy making new friends and exploring MDI with them, as well as [nearby] Swan’s Island, where I have some family and friends. This photo was actually taken on the ferry to Swan’s. I love that I can island-hop here. It helps me escape, even if it’s just to an even smaller, more remote island. It may feel like we’re distanced from the rest of civilization out here sometimes, but I’ve learned there’s always something to do if you decide to make it happen.” .
