Emily Palmquist '17
Hello! My name is Emily Palmquist and I am a Junior Elementary Education Major with a Middle School Science Concentration (kind of like a minor for Education). I am from Andover, Minnesota which is a little ways north of the cities. After I graduate from Gustavus I hope to have my own classroom in preferably an Elementary School or a STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math based) School. In addition to Deltas, I am a member of the Gustavus Dance Team, and participate in Study Buddies, Student Educators Association (SEA), and Kappa Delta Pi Education Honors Society. When I am home on breaks or in the summer I am a gymnastics teacher, so I get to do flips and play with small children for my job! When I am at GAC i am the manager of the gymnastics team, and you may see me running around at the home gymnastics meets doing various things for the team. MY favorite thing about being a Delta is all of the wonderful women that are now in my life that would do anything for me, and I would do the same for them. My sisters always know how to cheer me up when I am down and I am forever grateful for them. Our philanthropy is also very dear to my heart since my grandma and my gymnastics coach growing up were both breast cancer survivors. I am so excited for the year ahead and welcoming new women into Deltas!
