Olivia Ireland ’17

Hometown: Dayton, OH

Undergraduate major: Religion

Hobbies/activities: I spend most of my free time obsessing over my dog, Benji—walking him, playing with him, talking about him. When I’m not with Benji, I love going to workout classes and eating great food in Columbus.

Fun fact: I jumped off the tallest bridge in the world and pet a cheetah in the same week!

Something I love about Denison: I met my best friends here!

Advice to prospective students: When you visit schools, think about how comfortable you’d feel as a student. If you feel comfortable, you’ll likely take more advantage of the opportunities to go beyond your comfort zone, and those are the opportunities that will really define your college experience.
