Ben Rossi graduated from Jonathan Law last year and now attends Marist College. 

Rossi is majoring in Journalism and is minoring in Sports Communications.

“College has been fun,” Rossi said. “I’m really enjoying the independence along with the unlimited meal swipes.”

Rossi lives somewhat close to home, but he said being away from Law was hard.

“The transition from college was definitely an adjustment because I live with six guys in a suite which has changed my way of life,” Rossi said.

Rossi was a part of Law’s football and track teams and is now involved in several extracurricular activities at Marist.

“I’m part of a club flag football team and a dodgeball team and in the spring I plan on trying out for the club baseball team,” Rossi said. “I also miss guarding Cesar Mendez in football practice because I knew it was about to be an easy rep.”

Overall, Rossi has enjoyed his first semester. 

“What I enjoy the most about college is the ability to take classes that actually interest me and will help me in my field later,” Rossi said. “You also meet kids from all over the world which creates very interesting conversations.”
