#MericiMoment Wall of Words - Laura Baker, Class of 2007
Submitted by mericiadmin on May 16, 2022 - 4:04pmMy chosen word is LEADERSHIP.
Merici prepared me and encouraged me to grow as a leader while at College but also for the future. I was the Tullow House Captain in 2007, where we were the champions of that year. I think there were a few key things that made that happen and it's such a special time to reflect on.
