Josefina

I am Josefina, a junior majoring in Environmental Science at Colorado College. I am committed to a career in sustainability and climate justice, and I have a deep appreciation for the role of science in informing meaningful action. I am passionate about community engagement as a pathway to address the climate crisis and to foster genuine, personal connections. My primary interests include soil systems and urban agriculture. I have been working with the Annual Giving Office for almost a year, and I always enjoy connecting with Colorado College alumni and hearing about their experiences after graduation. 

Eli


Hi I am Eli Paschall Johnson and I am an organismal biology and ecology major here at Colorado College. I was born and raised just 60 miles from campus in Denver Colorado. I love the outdoors, and I enjoy hiking and backpacking in my summers and skiing through my winters. I love watching basketball and I am a proud member of the Colorado College Rugby team. I hope to one day use my biology degree to pursue a career in medicine.

Diego

My name is Diego Arenas, and I’m from Hollister, California. I’m a member of the Class of 2028, majoring in Neuroscience and minoring in Spanish. One of my favorite things about Colorado College is the uniqueness and friendliness of the community — I've met so many amazing people and always enjoy engaging with others on campus. I’ve gotten involved by serving as a RA and joining several student clubs, which has allowed me to connect with an even wider range of students. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, watching documentaries and health videos, cooking, and playing cards.

Hello! My name is Luis (He/Him), a student of the Class of 2027 Colorado College majoring in Biochemistry and minoring in Latin American and Carribean studies.  I want to get into the field of Forensic Science, so I thought choosing a major that incorporates both chemical and biological topics would be a great fit for me. Being born and raised in North Texas, coming to study at CC was something I initially wasn’t planning to do, but I am glad I ended up here. I believe that CC has fostered a welcoming culture that allows people from an array of backgrounds to share their voices and experiences. From discussions about policy making to interdisciplinary discussions between STEM and the humanities, I’ve seen firsthand how CC creates these spaces and allows for innovation to come about. Some things I enjoy doing in my spare time include watching shows on streaming platforms, playing video games, and enjoying the small things in life like seeing the seasons actively change. Feel free to reach out to me if you want to chat!
