Hi! My name is Amanda Burns! I'm originally from Schenectady, New York. I have lived all over the Midwest and Southeast, and now I call Greer, South Carolina home with my husband and black lab. I graduated from the USC Aiken in 2001, then Columbia College in 2015 with my Masters of Higher Education. I'm thrilled to be a part of the Office of Admissions and Scholarships at MSU! Please let me know if you have any questions!
Get to know me
What is your favorite place on campus?
The Chapel of Memories was partly built with bricks from an old residence hall that burned. It's really cool how they chose to weave the memory of a tragedy into a place that symbolizes joy and hope. It's definitely a must see during your campus visit!
What is your favorite season on campus?
Fall 100%!!! The leaves changing, sweater weather, Bulldogs football season, and students back on campus!
What is the one experience students shouldn't miss?
Attending a MSU baseball game!
What is your favorite Starkville restaurant?
Bin 612!
Current Netflix show you are obsessed with?
I'm obsessed with too many Netflix shows, Sweet Magnolia's, The Night Agent, Bridgerton, Virgin River, Ginny & Georgia, Outer Banks, The Diplomat... and the list goes on and on.
