The Upside-Down Curriculum is not only empowering, but it also prepares you for the real world from the start. You know in your first year if your major is really what you want to pursue in life. I have friends at other schools who are just now getting in their accounting and financial management classes. I’m able to say that I did that my first year.
I think that the Core is very important. At first, you come into the Core with a high school mind-set, and you just want to get it over and done with. But sophomore year, we’re able to choose our own Core classes. I took Ethics & the Environment, and we focused specifically on water. That was the best class I think I’ve had at Champlain. Not only did it open my mind to environmental ethics, but I pursued a new lifestyle where I’m now GMO-free—everything is organic.
I am a part of CHAMP (Champlain Has Activities and Motivational Programming). We put on events for students on campus, like Spring Meltdown and our Snowball Dance, which is amazing. One year, Snowball’s theme was “Enchanted Forest,” and it was honestly the best event I’ve ever been to. I met a ton of people. I thought no one would know who I was. I don’t know how I did it, all I did was dance in a circle, but I pulled random people in and danced with them. People still come up to me and say, “Hey, I remember you. You danced with me!”
