Nicholas “Nico” Clarke was lost on the University of Dayton campus when he found out he wanted to attend UD. Four school years later, Clarke will become UD’s first sustainability major graduate.
“After my visit, I went on a walk and kind of got lost with my family,” Clarke said. “And then, ironically, we ended up in U Lot, which is weirdly close to Old River Park.
“Looking back, it’s an interesting place to make a decision. I just really liked UD. I liked the feeling on campus.”
Originally a philosophy major, Clarke said a professor asked him to take an environmental ethics class.
