“I chose Kirkwood because I didn’t know what I wanted to do and it’s a very affordable place to start. I’ve been involved with many clubs, but my favorite has been raising money for Dance Marathon, which benefits the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital. I love that all of the staff, faculty, and students are so friendly!”
