Via Clise

Via Clise (she/her/hers) is a 4^th year honors student majoring in Molecular Biology & Genetics and minoring in BioChem. Currently, she serves as the Vice President of Representation and Chair of the Student Senate, though this is her 4^th (and final) year as a RUSGA member. Via is very active on campus, also occupying roles as a Peer Minister for West Hall, Vice President of Alpha Epsilon Delta (AED), Director of Service for the Jesuit Honors Society Alpha Sigma Nu (ASN), Communications Liaison for the Laudato si’  Committee, and TA-ing for a few History classes. Though assuredly employed, Via will always make time to listen to concerns, plan projects and events, or support student initiatives. Always dreaming big, Via desires to pursue an MD/PhD dual degree upon graduation and work as a Physician Scientist, running both a lab and a clinical practice. When Via isn’t studying, working in a lab, mentoring, or promoting RUSGA initiatives, you can find her reading, climbing, playing a hand of Blackjack, or spending time with her loved ones.
