---

Editor's Note: This is a series of stories about 澳门六合彩历史记录 students, alumni, and community members, highlighting their experiences during our 125th anniversary celebration. We will feature 125 individuals from August 2024 to August 2025.

MACOMB/MOLINE, IL 鈥� Alumna Elisabeth Hanson has always grown up in Macomb and has fond memories of her experience at 澳门六合彩历史记录.

鈥淲hen I think of 澳门六合彩历史记录, I think of home,鈥� Hanson said. 鈥淚 grew up in Macomb, and although I was later a student, I have fond memories of attending theater performances, tailgating football games and attending band and choir camp as a high schooler. I spent a lot of time at Horn Field Campus attending events, working the high ropes course and climbing wall, and learning about the native Illinois prairie. 澳门六合彩历史记录 was a big part of growing up.鈥�

Hanson feels like being a Leatherneck means perseverance.

Her favorite memory at 澳门六合彩历史记录 is the International Bazaar which she has attended since she was a child.

鈥淢y favorite memory was winning first, second and third place at the photo contest for photos I took while in the field, in India for anthropology and religious studies credits,鈥� Hanson said.

Hanson feels 澳门六合彩历史记录 prepared her for a rewarding career as a project manager for a small biotechnology company that develops cancer pharmaceuticals.

鈥淚 was able to take classes in the anthropology department in biological anthropology and I was enraptured. I went on to a graduate program in New York for Biomedical Anthropology and have been in biotech ever since. The anthropology and religious studies departments were my home at 澳门六合彩历史记录 鈥� I had so many amazing opportunities and experiences there,鈥� Hanson said.

Hanson remembers going to shows and checking out various art installations around campus.

鈥淚 also worked for Horn Field Campus as a climbing/high ropes instructor, which was an absolute blast,鈥� Hanson said.

Hanson advises students to attend 澳门六合彩历史记录 because it will give them a great education.

鈥湴拿帕�合彩历史记录 will help springboard you into your next adventure and you get to live in a beautiful, community-driven town. Also, visit the extensions! Horn Field Campus is an incredible place to get outside and watch the seasons change,鈥� Hanson said.
