Lauren Percy '16 was crowned Miss New Hampshire on April 29 — something she has been working toward for several years.
Percy, who is now a graduate student in Columbia University’s Teachers College, spoke about her love for UNH, interest in teaching and her participation in the Miss New Hampshire program shortly before her graduation last year.
As Miss New Hampshire, Percy will focus on her commitment to education with her platform, “Reach Higher: Making Higher Education Possible,” and compete in the Miss America Pageant in September.
