In the beginning, I didn&#8217;t know anyone, and I was not very talkative. However, joining a club that shared the same passion and values that I did just make everything so much easier. The best memories were traveling to other states and competing with the national-caliber competition. We would support each other equally on the field as we did off the field, creating a family-like environment. Joining the club completely transformed my Valpo experience while gaining friendships that will last a lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Jesus Osorio<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Graduated:<\/strong>\u00a0May 2017<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Degree:<\/strong>\u00a0B.S., Civil Engineering<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Current Program of Study:\u00a0<\/b>Master&#8217;s in Civil Engineering, University of Illinois<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Contact Email\u00a0<\/b>&#8211;\u00a0<a onclick=\"window.open('mailto:\\u006a\\u006a\\u006f\\u0073\\u006f\\u0072\\u0069\\u006f\\u0066\\u0040\\u0067\\u006d\\u0061\\u0069\\u006c\\u002e\\u0063\\u006f\\u006d','_blank');return false;\" href=\"javascript:void(0);\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.write('\\u006a\\u006a\\u006f\\u0073\\u006f\\u0072\\u0069\\u006f\\u0066\\u0040\\u0067\\u006d\\u0061\\u0069\\u006c\\u002e\\u0063\\u006f\\u006d');<\/script><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Best memories from your Valpo days: &nbsp; By far my best memories were developed with the Ultimate Club team.
