Meet Joshua Riesenberg, a senior hailing from the Weitzenhoffer Family College of Fine Arts graduating with a degree in music. Like many students experiencing college for the first time, Riesenberg was unsure as to what path he should follow. Despite that unsureness, music was always in the periphery for Riesenberg with his background going back to childhood. Fortunately, his passion ultimately drove him to success during his career at the University of Oklahoma.
Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences | Human Relations
Lauren Riggs' Heartfelt Cause to Help Others
Lauren Riggs is a human relations major graduating from the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences. She initially came to OU with a passion for helping others in a direct way. Riggs' world was changed forever following her diagnosis with Friedreich's Ataxia prior to her senior year. The revelation of having a rare hereditary disorder did not deter Riggs, rather it inspired her to pursue her new-found cause to help others.
