Hello everyone!
My name is Melissa King and I am a freshman here at Washburn! I'm from Satanta, KS, a small rural town of around 1,500 people in Southwest Kansas. I graduated with only 15 people, which definitely influenced my decision to choose Washburn University. Even though I live over five hours from Topeka, I chose Washburn because of its small class sizes and community atmosphere. My cousin is currently enrolled here and my mom also graduated from Washburn so Washburn runs in the family! I chose to major in mass media because I have always loved learning about communication and social media. I am also interested in politics and would like to pursue something in that area. I am currently pursuing a minor in leadership studies through the Leadership Institute and am living in the Leadership Learning Community. I am really excited to get involved here at Washburn and I plan on joining several clubs and organizations. I also plan on going through sorority recruitment. I love reading and spent my summers working at my town’s local library. I am also very passionate about traveling and hope to study abroad at some point in my college career!
I can’t wait to meet everyone!
