Elizabeth R. Waples

Elizabeth R. WaplesSBU is everything I wanted in a college.
The faculty are fantastic.


I connected personally with Dr. Anne Foerst who taught my "Intellectual Journey" class. She convinced me to take my honors course.


I wasn't sure how I was going to fare, but she encouraged me and helped me see that you can't give up on things you want in life. She told me, "You will be a successful doctor," and helped me to believe it.


The food is great here - and that's coming from an athlete who wants to be a doctor. 


There are great options for everyone - even vegetarians. Made-to-order dishes, smoothies, ice cream, salads - there are lots of choices.
