Today, we would like to introduce you to one of our current English majors, Molly Moulin (Class of 2027)! Learn more about Molly below:
😊📚🦉🎉
🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸🔸
My name is Molly Moulin and I am a rising senior English & Secondary Education major at Westfield State. My dream job is to be a middle or high school ELA teacher. This past semester I did my field experience at a middle school in Chicopee and I absolutely LOVED it. I worked in a 6th grade classroom with students who were hardworking, kind, and my motivation to be the best teacher I can be. For the 2026-2027 school year I will be at Westfield High School and will take over as the teacher in January for my practicum. I am so excited for the opportunity to get to work with more students and touch so many lives. Aside from my academics, I am involved in many meaningful ways on campus. You can often find me working as an office assistant in the English department, giving a campus tour as an Admissions Ambassador or in the Woodward Center dance studio with the dance company where I serve as a choreographer and the treasurer for the company. Westfield State has given me so much and the best part of my experience has been the people. I feel so lucky to have made such great friendships that will last a lifetime! I am so excited for my senior year and am ready to soak in the final moments and memories for my final year at Westfield! 🦉📚😊📕

Let us take a moment to meet one of the people who make WSU work. 🦉
Here we have Anna, who is the Maintenance Supervisor (Maintainer III) of New Hall. She works with a team to make sure the residence hall and other parts of campus are running as smooth as possible. 🏫🦉
We are grateful for her and all the maintenance and ground teams at WSU! 🦉🎉💙
