Ferris criminal justice junior Brett Chesebro spent her spring break in New York City with her friend Sarah McKeon, another Ferris student who is originally from the area.
Chesebro said that McKeon was going home to see her family for spring break in New York and asked if she wanted to join her.
“My friend Sarah was born and raised here so she’s been showing me all the city has to offer,” said Chesebro. “It’s been a place I’ve always wanted to visit. I grew up in the small town of Morley, about 15 miles from campus, so it’s been a great experience.”
The girls spent their time off school exploring and sight-seeing in the city, including the Empire State Building and her favorite sight on the trip; the 9/11 Memorial World Trade Center site.
“It was very eye-opening,” Chesebro said about the memorial.
“The city is very fast-paced and very diverse. I was amazed at all the different cultures, races and lifestyles all in one place,” she said. “It has been a trip I’ll never forget.”
