Why CMU?: “When I stepped onto the campus, it just felt right. The people of the community and the sense of togetherness really bonded me to the campus. It's funny because my brother had played CMU a few times in football, so I have been to the campus 2-3 times before my visit. I never really saw the real beauty of it because CMU was the opposing team, so of course I was rooting against them. My brother and I have found a common ground since then, MAC 4ever! Fire up!”
