Will Dowling

What is your hometown?

Kaiserslauten, Germany. I’ve lived there for 10 years now.

What is your major?

History

Do you have a favorite professor or department?

Simon Cordery, he’s my advisor.

I know you work at the Grounds a lot. Do you think there will be people to run it next year after you and your comrades graduate?

I hope so. We’re in the process of trying to find people to take over after we graduate.

How is life being the HR of Graham?

Definitely an experience. To know the reputation of the building was a plus going in.

What are your plans after graduation?

Going to grad school for a Master’s in college student personnel. I have applied to Eastern and Western Illinois Universities

Do you have a favorite MC memory?

Not really. I enjoyed the opportunity to spend time with my friends, randomly playing video games, Frisbee, sitting around in the cafeteria for two hours, which we’ve done before, running the Grounds

What will you miss most about MC?

The people, mostly. The buildings will always be here but the people change every year.

Do you have any crazy goals?

Succeed at everything I do and go on to grad school.

Would you prefer working at a larger school, or a smaller school like Monmouth?

I’d prefer to work at a smaller school. I like being able to say hello to 50 different people while on my way from Stockdale to the library.
