Who Is Bailey Farthing?

     My name is Bailey Farthing and I am currently studying Sports Administration at the wonderful Lock Haven University. I started playing volleyball in 7th grade, I fell in love with it, and I've been a one-sport kind of girl ever since. I've been stuck in the, "go to class, go to practice, then go to bed" routine all of my life and I can't see it ever ending so I want to pass down my love of the sport through coaching. The classes I'm taking for Sports Administration have also sparked my interest in becoming an Athletic Director. But we'll see how things go. I'm indecisive.
     I consider myself to be pretty comfortable with technology, considering I grew up in the 21st century. I've prepared power point presentations, I've been taught on smart boards, and I've just upgraded to a smart phone.
     I have not been introduced to any online courses, but I have taken Intro to Computers where I created my own website, mastered Microsoft Word, and set up an Excel spreadsheet. If EDTF had been offered online, I would not have taken it because I prefer traditional classroom settings. I am a visual learner, and I find it easier to learn through example rather than experimentation.
FUN FACT of the day: My face is on the LHU homepage.
