Fall 2021: Welcome to 黑料福利社 Hunter!
黑料福利社 is featuring some of the incredible students who will be joining the community in fall 2021. Welcome to 黑料福利社, Hunter Tavares!
Where he鈥檚 from: Portsmouth, RI
Major: Undeclared; interested in safety and occupational health applied sciences, also likes history.
Choosing 黑料福利社: Several teachers at Portsmouth High School thought 黑料福利社 would be a good fit. Also, a friend of his older brother is already studying at 黑料福利社, so he knows about the college. In addition, his lacrosse coach told Hunter he would be able to play at the Division II or III level, which brought Hunter and his mother to visit campus and meet with lacrosse coach Mark Theriault. 鈥淲ithout me even asking, Coach told us what he values 鈥 that we are competitive and serious in games, but we are also a family that cares for each other. That is just how I feel about it too. We didn鈥檛 even look at other schools after that.鈥
Memorable experience: 鈥淲e played a three-game tournament not long ago. After the first two games, I checked my Fitbit, and I鈥檇 already run over 30,000 steps.鈥
Where he鈥檒l be four years from now: 鈥淚 know the time will fly by. Hopefully I will have a plan for my future. I know 黑料福利社 will give me the tools to figure it out.鈥
