Ashley Hahn (Cox) ’16, M’17 – Occupational Therapy
What a joy it is to recall precious memories from my Elizabethtown College experience! One of my most memorable experiences still to this day is my time in the Momentum Program. I created deep, impacted memories and relationships that carried me through my years there (Sara, Isaiah, and Amelia to name a few!) We were able to explore who we were away from home, reflect on our skills through Strengths Quest, and have late-night fun in a campus-wide scavenger hunt!
Erin DeBrosse, Laiken Dowling, Angela Hammert, and I all became good friends during our studies of Occupational Therapy, with many late nights in the library on the third floor! We liked it quiet and calm while studying side-by-side, with stops here and there for chatting about academic topics and the latest campus events. There is nothing like having a strong group of ladies who are smart and kind to help you through the highs and lows of undergrad and graduate studies!
