Personal

Daughter of Jeanne and Jeff Dowdle.
Majors are Secondary Education and History.
Chose CofC because she fell in love the first time she visited the campus, and knew that she wanted to attend a well-rounded liberal arts school like Charleston.
She enjoys spending time volunteering in her community and is interested in makeup and fashion.
Fun fact about Emma is that she was adopted from Kokshetau, Kazakhstan at 6 months old.
