St. Andre Committee Members

Ben Bonfiglio, Committee Member

Class of 2028, Economics

What’s up guys, welcome to the best dorm on campus. I’m Ben and I’m a rising sophomore from Annapolis, Maryland. I’m an economics major, and take part in extracurriculars such as SIBC, intramural sports, and tutoring for local elementary school children. In my free time I enjoy working out, reading, watching movies, and most of all, spending time with the guys from Carroll. I chose to be a part of the St. Andre Committee because I want to make all of you feel as welcomed as I did during my first few days on campus, and my fellow committee members and I are all committed to that same goal. I can’t wait to meet all you guys and show you how great the dorm is.
