Lisa Papagoda

Lisa Papagoda is a new student in Professor Humphrey’s Journalism I class that is held on Tuesday and Thursday nights in the Jaeb Computer Center. Originally from North Haven, Connecticut, Papagoda is currently a junior at the University of Tampa. When looking at colleges, she decided that she wanted warmer weather and to get away from the cold. Also, she is much more interested in an area that is new and bigger. She also has a younger brother, Joey, who is 17 years old. Papagoda had transferred this past summer from the University of West Florida in Pensacola. She did so because she had added her major of communication to a double major consisting of writing and communication. Papagoda is also working for a minor in advertising. She likes many types of music, mainly bands that play on the radio from the rock and pop music genres. Her activities while in Tampa include going out on the weekends to popular bars and clubs such as Boss Hoggs and Mangroves. She also enjoys going to the beach, shopping, and going to the movies with friends. Recent films she’s seen are Sherlock Holmes and Disney’s The Frog Princess.
