Jonathan Law Class of 2024 graduate Hailey Russo is currently attending Salve Regina University in Newport, Rhode Island, but soon plans to transfer to Eastern Connecticut State University.

When choosing colleges, Russo had to choose between Salve Regina and Eastern Connecticut. Although she is transferring, she is still enjoying her last moments at Salve.

“College is going good,” Russo said. “I’ve made some friends but I realized that Salve wasn’t for me and I think Eastern will be a better fit.”

Russo, who spent much of her time at Law taking part in Drama Club, said she misses her friends and family back in Milford.

“Some struggles I have in college are just missing my friends and family back at home,” Russo said. “ Home-sickness is for real.”

Russo hopes to help others that are graduating to choose the right college for them.

“A piece of advice I have for the upcoming graduates is to follow your heart,” Russo said. “Just get to know everyone you can.”
