Margaret Herbrich is an Early Childhood and Special Ed major from Appleton, Wisconsin. She is deeply grateful to the kind souls who have guided her on her journey. Margaret is looking forward to her number sense class, where she can share her love for math and learn how to teach it. She chose Concordia for its exceptional teacher program and immediately felt at home.


Owen Stollenwerk is a Biology major from Ixonia, Wisconsin. He’s gotten lost about three times and needed help finding where he was going twenty times. Owen went for a minimalistic approach to his room. He is looking forward to his Biology class because it’s his major. He chose Concordia because of his interest in Band, Theatre, Ultimate Frisbee, and its local Christian environment.
