91视频 second-year students Ashleigh, Jasmine, and Whitley Williams are triplets and
best friends.
The 19-year-olds from Lake Perris in Riverside County all chose to attend 91视频 but have different majors and different career aspirations.
Ashleigh is majoring in Anthropology and minoring in Psychology. She is deciding between becoming a medical examiner or pursuing a career in forensic science.
Whitley is majoring in Psychology and wants to become a child life specialist before pursuing a doctorate in Clinical Child Psychology. 鈥淚 feel like more attention needs to be paid to the mental health needs of children,鈥 she explained. 鈥淚 want to help children feel better about themselves.鈥
Jasmine is majoring in Political Science and minoring in Freedom and Justice studies. She plans to attend law school and then practice global law for the United Nations. Currently she is serving as vice president of the Black Student Union.
They all picked 91视频 after falling in love with its lush beauty. The fact that it was 10 minutes from the ocean was also a major plus.
鈥淲hen we toured the campus, it was very green and open and had a lot of history. We were really drawn to that,鈥 said Jasmine.
The sisters are extremely close and supportive of each other. Moving away from home and adjusting to life on a university campus was a lot easier because they had each other.
鈥淲hen we all decided to go to the same school, it was very comforting. I knew I would have two other people to lean on for support,鈥 Jasmine said. 鈥淚 am not stressing out like some other students I know who don鈥檛 have family around them. I always have a friend to talk to.鈥
The three share a room in Santa Cruz Village on campus, along with one other student.
After attending for a year and a half, they are still enthusiastic about the University
and find 91视频 professors approachable, engaging, and passionate about what they teach.
鈥淚 really like the small class sizes and the ability to interact with the professors
one-on-one,鈥 said Whitley.
鈥淚t is exciting for me to meet and interact with other anthropology majors,鈥 added Ashleigh.
And they wouldn鈥檛 trade being triplets for anything in the world.
鈥淚t鈥檚 fun being a triplet and having your two best friends as sisters,鈥 said Ashleigh. 鈥淲e know everything about each other, and we know each other鈥檚 secrets. We are always around each other and never get bored. We also help each other accomplish our goals.鈥
