MEAGAN BIELANIN 2004



MEAGAN BIELANIN





Penn State University, The Behrend College





BA English Literature/Political Science

Meagan left the basketball court and classrooms of MPS behind and went to Penn State Behrend where she continued her basketball career and her excellence in the classroom. A Dean's List student every semester, she graduated with distinction. While at Behrend, she served as an undergraduate teaching assistant, and also volunteered for Erie's Voting Department during elections, working with the new voting machines. She served as a basketball camp counselor at Behrend and was an assistant coach for the Erie Saints Basketball Organization for two seasons. She had the opportunity to study abroad while at Behrend, spending a summer in London at the University of Northampton and while there she took time to travel to Italy and France. An experience she "wouldn't trade for the world".

Currently Meagan is in Law School at Case Western University in the JD program. During the summer she did legal work for the City of Cleveland's Building and Housing Department. She lives in Cleveland Heights and is looking for an assistant coaching job, to keep her hand in basketball.

Meagan credits Mercyhurst Prep and the IB program for preparing her to excel at Behrend. "Because of my great teachers in the program at MPS", she pursued a major in English Lit. and Political Science with a minor in International Studies. She received nearly a semester of credit for her IB work.
