Holla! My name is Michele Slater, I am a fourth year Landscape Architecture student. My journey to CAL POLY started in Walnut Creek, California, as a student at Las Lomas high school. I applied to Cal poly, along with several other universities my senior year as a political science major. Thrilled at my acceptance to Cal Poly, I excitedly decided to enroll for Fall 2004.
College life, freshman until now, has been a blast. I lived in the Cal Poly dorms my freshman year (Sierra Madre) where I met my four best friends. I changed my major freshman year from political science to Landscape Architecture. The switch to a design based major has truly ignited a life long passion.
Currently, I am at the end of my fourth year, life is busier than ever. I am on the executive board for Poly Reps, a member of the ski and snow board club and in the Landscape Architecture honor society. I have four classes, 16 units, the best load for a successful student. I have an upper division Implementation Studio, Spanish , Ancient Literature and a furniture design class ( my favorite). This summer I will be studying abroad in Barcelona for two months and backpacking through 3 other countries.
Next time I will fill you cats in on my recent architecture field trips and the deal on my favorite classes.
Michele
