Graduation: 2014
Major: Religious Studies and Political Science
St. Joseph junior Ryan Zavacky is a culture buff who is creating a worldly undergraduate experience for himself through his double major in religious studies and political science.
“I love learning about a country’s culture,” he says. “I knew that by studying religion, I could learn about a specific aspect of culture that relates to culture as a whole, often in connection with politics.”
