When they have the Mexican food month I like to ask them to put nothing but chicken and rice in the container. You get like 3lbs of chicken and rice it’s the best!
What has been your favorite thing about going to school at Clark?
Without a doubt, it’s gotta be my friends.

Student Activities Board, Undergraduate Judiciary Board, Peer Advisor.
What are your best words of wisdom for underclassmen?
If you choose the meal plan with the most dining dollars and then spend them all during the first two weeks of the semester, you can change your plan for free to the one with the most meals and have a stash of snacks that’ll last you months.
What are your plans post-graduation?
I’ll be starting work at City Realty Group in Boston this July!
Thanks, Jacob!
