Sam Carens ’21
When I was a student at the University of Illinois, expectations were high. I certainly felt prepared because of the mindset Saint Viator instilled in me. In high school, I was held to a high standard in the classroom while being pushed and challenged to excel. Consequently, the adjustment to college was fairly seamless. The teachers, faculty, staff, and coaches fostered a nurturing culture where I felt challenged and supported. It was also a safe environment where I could make mistakes and learn from them. This environment helped me succeed.
