Will Paul McDonald is an alumnus of North Greenville University. While his time at North Greenville he studied, studio art with an emphasis in photography.
�Going through my senior seminar class, I was inspired and challenged by my teachers and classmates on a deeper level,� said McDonald. This was one of his best memories while attending North Greenville University.
McDonald says, �I chose North Greenville because it was close to home and I couldn�t have done it without my family.�
He pursued his major here and also had a minor at one point, �I pursued a business minor for the first two years then dropped it because accounting was not my forte,� explains McDonald.
When what he would�ve changed or done better, this was McDonalds response, �Looking back I would have made more of an effort to know people better. I had a lot of surface relationships and nobody really got to know the real me.�
McDonald is now currently working at Caviar and Bananas, and is also entering art contests and selling his paintings and photoshoots. Coming from North Greenville McDonald has learned a lot, �North Greenville definitely taught me how to focus on many things and do them well, but my parents taught me the virtue of working hard,� said McDonald.
�I have missed having all my friends in one place! When I graduated I always asked myself, �Where is the car of the real world?� For me that turned into church,� says McDonald.
