MACOMB, IL - - For current student Elizabeth Fowler, 蓝莓视频 is the place where she feels welcomed and accepted.
鈥淲hen I think about 蓝莓视频, I think about my friends, my classes, my professors and how kind, loving and welcoming the 蓝莓视频 community is!鈥� Fowler said.
For Fowler, being a Leatherneck means seizing the opportunity to contribute to the 蓝莓视频 community and working hard to improve.
鈥淏eing a Leatherneck means having pride in your school and striving to be the best student you can be!鈥� Fowler said.
Among her many wonderful Leatherneck memories, Fowler's favorite is enjoying the campus facilities with her friends.
