Hello, my name is Robert Scheurer, and I
am an incoming freshman at Saint Bonaventure University. I’d like to share a
little about myself and why I chose to be a history major.
I was born in New York City, but was
raised in Cranford, a small town in northern New Jersey. From an early age, I
was fascinated by stories. I began to read, and by the time I was four I could
read well enough on my own. I loved anything I could get my hands on, consuming
information like a junkie. From dinosaurs to the Titanic, I loved to learn.
This led to me joining the Cub Scouts in Kindergarten, which ended with me as an
Eagle Scout and a veteran of Philmont Scout Ranch. I went to St. Peter’s
Preparatory School in Jersey City for high school and earned several varsity
letters in football and rugby. I was a member of the Celtic Club and Italian
Club. Currently, I am on the St. Bonaventure Rugby team and am looking forward
to joining the history club.
My dad really got me into history, as he
enjoys to study history as a hobby. My favorite areas to study are especially
European and American history during the 20th century, specifically
military history. I am looking forward to studying and honing my skills in
these fields.
