“I came in with zero flight time. Within the first week, they had me up in the air learning new things. I didn’t know much about planes, so the flight instructor taxied us out on the runway but he let me take off. I knew immediately I wanted to be a pilot.” Riley England, professional aviation flight technology major from Avon, Indiana

“In my freshman year, my book review was published in the Journal of Qualitative Criminal Justice and Criminology. It’s one of my proudest accomplishments. And I could not have done it without support and encouragement from State’s criminology faculty.” Jordan Denton, criminology and criminal justice major from Mechanicsville, Virginia

BLUE IS GETTING FIT AND HAVING

FUN Where will you go when you need a study break and have an itch to get up and move? For Brooklynn Keinsley, a health sciences major from Lanesville, Indiana, the Student Rec Center calls her name.

“It’s a great atmosphere. I’m able to meet new people, be surrounded by students, get to meet faculty, and relieve some stress. It’s just a wonderful part of Indiana State.” Brooklynn takes advantage of the numerous exercise classes and finds the natatorium to be a unique offering (hello, hot tub!). Will you claim the indoor soccer and volleyball courts as your spot? Or perhaps the weightlifting competitions pump you up. Cardio. Intramurals. A quiet sauna soak. It’s all available!
