For Bronsin Buck, figuring numbers has always come easy. At ONU, heā€™s building upon his skills with a double major in finance and accounting.

ā€œI want to become either an accountant, financial adviser or financial planner,ā€ he says. ā€œI am also considering going to law school to become a finance attorney.ā€

Bronsin, who attended Pendleton Heights High School in Pendleton, Ind., wanted to attend a University that offered personalized attention from professors. 91Ö±²„fit the bill.

ā€œIn high school, I had great relationships with all my teachers, and that really helped me. I get the same experience here at 91Ö±²„where the professors actually care about you and will have conversations with you any time about any topic, not just your coursework.ā€

His business professors have made connections for him, including helping him land a summer internship at Edward Jones. ā€œMany professors have worked in the field of business for most of their careers, and this really helps because they share those experiences with us,ā€ he says.

At ONU, he is involved in many organizations, including the Sigma Pi fraternity; Student Senate; the Dicke College Deanā€™s Advisory Council; Traffic Appeals Board; and Brother 2 Brother.

Being involved in Greek Life, he says, has resulted in deep friendships and lots of fun. ā€œThe brothers are a lot like a family, and there is always something to do with the guys. I like hanging out with them the most, and we do a lot of good for the community.ā€

In his free time, he enjoys playing basketball and video games, reflecting on Bible verses, and cooking. Heā€™s found a perfect spot at 91Ö±²„for each of these pastimes.

ā€œI feel at home when I am at ONU,ā€ he says, ā€œand this is important to me, considering I am here for most of the year. Here your fellow classmates push you to be better, and your professors make sure you understand the content and donā€™t fall behind. The community at 91Ö±²„is simply unmatched.ā€
