The Moment I Knew

Do you believe in "love at first sight?" Because our students can recall that moment... the moment they fell in love with UMN Crookston and when they knew it was the right place for them. Hear it right from the source - find your moment and you're sure to fall in love too.

My name is Lauren Wallace, and I'm from Bloomington, Minnesota. And I knew that I made the right decision about going to your UMN Crookston when I was on campus with my mom and I had already committed to the volleyball team, but I didn't know a lot of the players. And I was in the eagle's nest, and there was a ton of people around and I get a tap on the shoulder. And one of my teammates was like, are you Lauren? And I was like, yeah, and she said, Oh, my gosh, and Kate, she gave me a hug. She was like, I'm gonna be a new teammate. Like, we're so excited to have you here. And then she took my mom, and I around, and answered any questions that I had. It just felt so welcoming, and so homey so that was one of the biggest times where I was like, yes, this is the place for me.
