Garett Whalen

Biography

I’m a 3rd year cybersecurity major. I originally wanted to attend a hometown college; however, plans changed once I learned my brother was going to go to that college. So I decided to take the 9-10 hour trip up to tech, during my birthday, to figure out if this is a place I could see myself going to. That turned out to be the best decision I have ever made. Houghton is a place I love and wish I could spend my entire life up here. The community, location, and weather are just some elements of Houghton and Michigan Tech that I have fallen in love with. A spot you can almost for sure find me at during the Spring Semester is the broomball rinks in a pink camo face mask.
