Letters from the RAs
Summer '18 ep.5
Meet James!
Howdy neighbors! My name Is James, (AKA Coach ever since my orientation!) and I’m super excited to be a part of this fall’s new community coming into the village! I’m 22 and heading into my second year at PC, working towards a Competence in Arts + Letters with a Breadth in Adventure Education. I was born and raised in Santa Rosa California (Go 49ers!), where I spent about 10 years working with a black box theater called The Imaginists. I spent about a year and half working retail and attending the local Junior College where I took classes that left kind of a bad taste in my mouth. During that time I was lucky enough to watch someone very dear to me get their bachelors degree at PC, and I heard all about the wonderful teachers and students that make this such a rad place! After a little push from them I applied and found a wonderful new home full of lifelong friends and exciting programs and connections! I’m a major fan of Godzilla, Classic Transformers, Japanese Pro-Wrestling, Formula one, motorcycle riding, writing/playing music, and just about any sport at any given time, among other things! If you’re nerdy about something I can probably hold a conversation with you about it! (and even if I don’t know anything about it, I would love to learn!) If I had to give one piece of advice to incoming students it would be this: ...Bring posters, pictures, flags, and anything else you can put up on your walls. It’s definitely a small thing, but I believe it’s the fastest way you can make a new place feel like home. I can’t wait to meet you all, so I can help you get acquainted with our fantastic little village and town!
