Down by the Water

Lauren Sieving, RWU Class of 2018

Student

Lauren Sieving takes full advantage of RWU's waterfront campus by jumping into a wetsuit and exploring the underwater world of Mt. Hope Bay. The scuba diving break provides the perfect respite for the architecture graduate:

Along with choosing RWU for its seaside location, Sieving was impressed with the quality of the Cummings School of Architecture.

"We are committed to excellence here," she says. It shows in the facilities, the professors, the studio space, the work students produce and in the school's graduates, she says.

In 2018, Sieving will be among those graduates and looks forward to a successful career in the field.

“My internship at the Rhode Island State Psychiatric Hospital helped me take what I learned from the classroom and apply it to real world settings. I learned how to conduct competency to stand trial evaluations with individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses. In my Law and Mental Health class, I learned about the issues the criminal justice system and mental health care faced. At my internship, I witnessed how those issues affected the patients that I worked with.”

"Trust yourself. The decision to attend graduate school is extremely difficult, so trust yourself that you will make the best decision possible. When in doubt, ask questions and seek advice. No one is in this process alone; there are so many support systems available for students, so take advantage of those and ask any and all questions (even the smallest ones) because you never know if someone else has that same confusion."
