Can You See Yourself Here?
Rosemont College’s close-knit campus community empowers each student to develop their voice and use it to share their unique experiences and perspective. In doing so, we find that each of us has something amazing to share—and something we can learn.
There is so much we could say about how Rosemont helps students grow intellectually, personally, and professionally. But our students say it best, so check out their stories, in their own words, below.

Myora Slaughter
Majors: Political Science
“With my softball team, this transition from Missouri to Pennsylvania has been smooth
and fun. I found a support system that loves me for me and tries to understand me.”
Casandra Antzoulatos
Majors: Sociology
"Before college, I felt like I knew everything and that nothing would surprise me.
At the same time, I was aware that there was so much left to learn. When I came to
Rosemont, I was surprised about everything the adult world had to offer."
Kenny Wiggins
Majors: History & Secondary Education
“I came to Rosemont unsure about my major until I took a history course. My professor
suggested I become a history teacher, so now I’m a History and Secondary Ed major.
It’s powerful to have a community that helps you find your passion.”
Elise Stankus
Majors: English
"My favorite thing about Rosemont so far is the small classes, and the ability to personalize my schedule (though I am tempted to say that the gorgeous campus is my favorite part as well)!
Ashton Lahiff
Majors: Studio Art & Design
“Rosemont has taught me academically to relax and focus, as well as broaden my horizons.
Personally, it has taught me to be who I am and not to hide away.”
Dezalyn Triplin
Majors: Psychology
“When I first came here, I questioned everything I did. But I met amazing people,
both students and faculty and staff, who always made sure that I mattered. It's something
I always knew, but it didn't really click until I got here. I've gained the POWER
or self-assurance."
Abigail Brooks
Majors: International Business and Accounting

he’s interested in hearing my views. This gives me hope for our students and Rosemont’s
future.”
Isabel "Bel" Acosta

“I’m from a little town in Texas. When I first arrived on campus, my view of the world
was pretty small. I have gained so much and become open to new ideas and people by
being part of such a diverse community.”
Frankie DiGironimo

“I want to be a first-grade teacher. I’ve already had a great deal of hands-on learning
experience.”

I’m not Catholic, but it doesn’t matter. It’s about so much more than worship.”
Jamya Johnson
Major: Political Science
"To me, the POWER of small means that I'm part of a community of lifelong learners who accept me for who I am. At Rosemont, I can walk into a room and everybody knows my name. As president of Black Student Union, I can use that power to elevate our community."
Kelly Shaugnessy
Major: Biology
"I have developed close relationships with my fellow Biology classmates and professors, and I know that I can count on them to help me through my time at Rosemont and keep me focused on my goal of becoming a physician."
Luvonda Fuller

I am Alyssa, not just a number."
