My College Decision! Anika Fischer ’19
“I will be attending Cornell University to study Industrial and Labor Relations. It is a unique program in which I will be able to explore many of my interests such as law, business, international relations, and social justice issues. During my experience at Mercy, particularly through the many opportunities of extracurricular involvement, I engaged in Mock Trial which has led me to possibly pursue a law degree and a career in law. Mercy has also supported me in various volunteer opportunities which have inspired me to focus my work on social justice issues. I believe that Mercy and my faith have given me a wider understanding – to use my talents to help others, whether that is by improving public policy, starting a non-profit, or in whatever I choose to pursue in college and beyond.”
