Class of 2021: Micaela Encarnacion

We celebrate the Class of 2021, what they have achieved during their years at Ripon and what they hope to achieve in the next chapter of their lives.

Micaela Encarnacion ’21 of Hoffman Estates, Illinois, is majoring in elementary and physical education with a minor in health. She will student teach in the fall and apply for graduate assistantships and attend graduate school for sports management.

“The most important lesson from Ripon College is that you have the ability to pursue whatever your heart desires,” she says. “No matter what you do, the Ripon community is supportive in every single aspect.

Her favorite memory from Ripon is sweeping St. Norbert College in softball during her freshman year.
