00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:11.000
I came to Western to study Social Science because it is close to home, and I felt like I really fit in with the Latina population here on campus.

00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:23.000
This term for my Social Science degree I'm taking Language and Culture.

00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:28.000
This class focuses and how language and migration can influence a culture from around the world. 

00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:32.000
One of my favorite things about Western is that there's a wide variety of classes to choose from. 

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:39.000
For example, for my degree I'm able to take classes about Latin American Culture, European History and Social Justice. 

00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:43.000
Another thing that I love about Western is that there is a wide variety of activities to be involved with. 

00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:48.000
This year, I'm a social membership director for the Multicultural Student Union. 

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:52.000
We focus on diversity and acceptance through events that we plan throughout the school year. 

00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:56.000
My career goal is to work within the immigration field and possibly law. 

00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:61.000
With my undergraduate degree from Western I'm ready to get my master's degree in Social Science. 

00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:04.000
So I can evoke positive change in our world. 

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.000
A reason I love Western is because I've met so many people from different backgrounds. 

00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:14.000
Western is a small campus, but it is very diverse. Western Oregon University is the right place for me.
