Stiles gave me my first paid experience of being in a director role and having to supervise others. Dave always pushed me to believe in myself and value my abilities, increasing my confidence in the workplace. This was the first place I worked that really felt like a second home/family.
The best memories were in the original building, just having conversations about current events, things happening on campus. I also enjoyed Facing You Facing me classes.
Stiles is a safe space on campus that provides resources, connections, opportunities, and a sense of familiarity. I know I would not have had the college experience I did without Stiles Hall.
