Samantha Prendergast

Why did you decide to come to MSU and pursue a degree in education?

I have always loved the idea of attending college in Starkville.  Ever since I was a little girl, I knew Mississippi State University was where I'd end up! I also enjoy helping others and caring for children, so I knew pursuing a career in education was the right choice. Not only does becoming a teacher mean that I get to help and care for everyone that walks through my classroom, I also get to change the lives of the future leaders of the world! Also, there is the added bonus of being able to decorate my classroom! 

What do you want people to know about you?

I love making gifts and crafts for other people! I also have a slight obsession with the color pink!

What advice would you give to entering freshmen or students finishing up high school?

Never wait until the last minute to do anything!
