Laurice says she loves being a sociology major because “sociology makes you question everything you take for granted.” She is particularly interested in studying diversity, wealth and poverty. She says she enjoys her sociology classes because “my professors are passionate for what they are teaching. Their enthusiasm is infectious and I am always looking forward to lectures.”

Laurice is currently studying abroad in London through the Sociology Department’s UB Semester in London program. And she has big plans for the future too: study abroad in South Korea, graduate school, and eventually running a non-profit organization that serves underprivileged youth.
