What Made You Decide to Attend UMD?
The James A. Clark Engineering School and the atmosphere of a large campus.

Best Experience with a Class or Project:
Any class where we had a design project. For Introduction to Engineering Design (ENES100) we built an autonomous hovercraft. It was a great way to start freshman year.

Favorite Class:
In major: Introduction to Engineering Design / Dynamics
Non-major: From Willowbrook to Attica: Delinquency in the Context of Disability


Involvements/Extracurricular Activities:
Muslim Student Association
Muslim Women of Maryland

Favorite On-Campus Event:
Art Attack concerts are always fun. In the past we've had Ludacris, The Bravery, Wycleaf Jean, Cobra Starship, and others come play for us. The sporting events are always great as well. No matter which sport it is, the games are always an enjoyable way to have fun and take a break from classes.
