Alum Success

Anna Wilson

"Lake State is a local University that gave me the option to earn my education while be located close to my family.  My short-term goal is to gain as much experience as possible in the community and to possibly continue my education toward a Masters Degree.  I’d like to continue my work within the city and take advantage of opportunities to be more involved in local politics.  In the long term, after I’ve made myself as competitive as possible the marketing field, I’d like to get a job at a medium to large size company and work more with individual products or brands as opposed to marketing a company itself."

" Currently I am a Board Member on the Sault Ste. Marie Downtown Development Authority, in which my marketing background has been beneficial.  Also, I work with the International 500 Snowmobile race as the Chairperson of the Non-Race Events Committee and I work in the pits doing timing for the race and other tasks.  I am studying snowmobile mechanics to eventually become a race official or snowmobile technician.  I compete on the Soo Co-op Credit Union bowling team and I’m continually involving myself in various community events."

Students and parents will find that shopping in the Sault can be an international experience. Not only do we have the best fudge in the country (at least we believe so, try it for yourself!), we also offer all the necessary amenities your student will need.

Downtown Sault, MI has a variety of specialized shops and restaurants enabling you to spend an afternoon walking around downtown, enjoying our small city atmosphere. For those of you looking for more of the "city life", Sault, ON has two large malls and a plethora of unique restaurants. Crossing the International Bridge is easy and quick. LSSU also offers the I-Hop, which is a local bus service that travels between the Twin Saults.

The restaurants and business around town love our college students and offer an array of discounts to anyone with a LSSU student ID. For example, a great many pizza places around town offer special deals to our students. And if you live in the dorms, don’t be troubled, because they deliver there too!

If you decide to stay up here in the summer and are looking for employment, the seasonal shops downtown often hire college students for the summer. This is a great way to get involved in the community as well as gain life experience.
