Follow messageColorado State University (CSU) Class of 2015
ALTO, NM
Being the best only matters when you're being you.
Hello everybody! I'm Lindsey Power, a freshman at Colorado State University (Go RAMS!) and so far my college experience has been spectacular! I am majoring in Research Wildlife Biology, and, hopefully, minoring in music performace. I know these are not related in any way, but I absolutely LOVE animals AND music, and I think it would be a shame if I didn't incorporate both into my life. In the words of Smash mouth, "You never know if you don't go, you'll never shine if you don't glow!" When I'm not doing homework, I am a member of the CSU Zoology club, and the Society for Conservation Biology. I play piano when I can (which is not nearly as much as I would like to) and occasionally draw. I also love to read. Since I am not originally from Colorado, I have to pay out of state tuition, which is killer! I really could use all the extra money I can get, and would greatly appreciate the token. I love to learn, and I would like to teach others about our world - all the secrets and wonders that it holds, and every reason why we should care. Thanks for visiting! :)
