New Knight to Know: Jack Riley ’28

Hometown: Smyrna, Del.

Major: Computer Science

Hobbies: Reading, coding, playing the various games around campus (ping pong, billiards, etc), and really just anything with the right people.

What is your proudest accomplishment to date?

It's a three-way tie. I placed third in the Congressional App Challenge a few years back, I won third in a bridge-building competition for my state, and I won the doubles conference for my high school tennis team 2 years in a row and subsequently got MVP.

Why did you choose Arcadia?

It's not too close or too far from home (2 hours), I can study abroad easily, and it has a really pretty campus.

What are you most looking forward to?

I am most looking forward to more activities! I love doing new random things.

What do you hope to accomplish at Arcadia?

I want to earn my degree and be ready for my field, but I want to have fun with my friends and enjoy my time here.

What else should we know? I have a super cute (and large) cat named Chloe, and my boyfriend Ethan goes here and he's amazing!
