Michael Cutler is a fifth-year senior who has been heavily involved on campus since he transferred to MBU as a junior in 2013. His extra time in college has allowed him more freedom to select a major, as well as more opportunities to gain experiences while at school.
As the weather has changed this week from mild to much cooler we are reminded that autumn is in full swing, and winter is right around the corner. So, what do our MBU Timeline bloggers like most about this time of year?
