Education B.A. Music - Muskingum University Bio Jake leads the admission team. Favorite Activity? Every summer, I try to take a canoe trip in the Boundary Waters of Northern Minnesota. There's not much I'd rather do than paddle through those lakes and rivers, camping out and catching fish for dinner. Best thing about Muskingum? During my sophomore year here at Muskingum, I met my future wife. We've been married since 2006 and I can't imagine a better life than what we have shared here in this community. Muskingum truly is a special place.
