Meet “The Hope Fund Scholarships” Students

Anna Dowd

Elk Grove Village, Illinois

Chemistry Major

“To pursue my major outside of the classroom I researched online chemistry learning communities for the past two summers. I also have a strong interest in advocating for important social issues so I have joined various groups on campus that purposefully raise awareness, empowers and educates students. I also wanted to help the community surrounding Hope so I joined Alpha Phi Omega, a national service fraternity, to help organize fundraising and service events. I work for the Hope Fund as a student caller where I get to talk to many different people connected to the Hope community. Lastly, I just began working for the chemistry department in a new program called peer partnership learning where I lead my own general chemistry help session to facilitate collaboration among students in attempt to help them understand foundational chemistry concepts better.”

Anne Snow

Northbrook, Illinois

Nursing and Spanish double major

“I work for the Outreach Center here on campus and was a coach for TTQ, or Total Trek Quest, which encourages youth development through training for a 5k. I’m looking forward to becoming an active member of Greek Life. Hope has opened up doors to new opportunities for me since day one on campus. I love how animated the student body is, especially for the abundant SAC events. Not only do I love the social aspect of Hope, I am also a huge fan of the academic side. I utilized the ASC last semester for a tutor in my hardest class. I also never have trouble when needing to meet with a teacher on account of the smaller, more close-knit class sizes. Overall, I’m happy to say how excited I am for my future here at Hope.”

“I really appreciate the way Hope’s faculty treat their students. More as friends, than as students, and in my opinion, that really helps the learning process.”

Communications and Political Science double major

“I am involved in Student Congress as the Sophomore Class Representative, Hope College Republicans executive board, the Delta Phi Sorority, and working in the Alumni and Family Engagement Office at Hope. I love how wherever I go, there’s a smiling, familiar face on campus. The community is unlike any other, and I’m so grateful to be a part of it.”

Victoria Ward

Vicksburg, Michigan

Theatre and French double major

“I chose Hope because I was looking for a smaller school atmosphere and when I visited the campus I instantly fell in love with the beauty of the campus and the kind people and knew this is where I wanted to be. I am very active in the theatre whether it be acting, house managing, or stage managing, I love learning about a field where we get to experience the raw power of what it means to be human.”
