My name is Ben Crawford, and this is my second year as a Running Start student at WWCC Clarkston Campus. I love learning and helping others learn and engage. Some of my hobbies include robotics, music, and pickleball, and I’ve mentored people in all of these activities.
During my time here, I hope to promote and facilitate learning and engagement on campus and overall improve the quality of life for students.
