Why Bonner?

I decided to apply and be a TCNJ Bonner as an avenue of continuing my passion for service as well as being a part of larger change! The community that comes with Bonner also made my adjustment to college much easier due to the shared first-year experiences.

Favorite TCNJ Bonner Memory

My favorite Bonner memory is our Urban Exploration trip to New York City during 2024 Spring Break. Watching MJ the Musical was an amazing learning experience! In addition, I made so many memories getting to connect with Bonners outside of my division and cohort.

Advice for Prospective Bonners

Your Bonner experience is what you make of it, especially in terms of making the most of the wealth of opportunities available to you! By working with my coordinator ahead of time, I have been able to engage in career-relevant internship and service opportunities each of my four years in Bonner.
