Marie is from Ceres, California. She graduated from TMU with a Bachelor’s in Biology. This is her first year serving as a Resident Director, and she is excited to return to the place she called home for four years. Marie’s time at TMU was marked by the relationships the Lord used to grow her in her walk with Him. She loved her classes, sports, dorm events, and the sweet memories she made with other girls in Sweazy. She looks forward to creating the same memorable experience she had as a student.
Favorite Things: Marie loves painting, drawing, night drives, and hanging out with friends and family.
The dorm is divided into four wings, two per floor of 10-12 rooms with a large central shower and restroom area on each wing. Laundry facilities are on the first floor. Each room is fully furnished for two students including beds, built-in shelving, drawers, closet space, desks, and an individual heater/air-conditioner unit. The wings are generally referred to as “Upper-East,” “Upper-West,” “Lower-East,” and “Lower-West.”
Sweazy’s brother dorm is Slight Hall.

Mancakes: A weekly event where the girls go visit the Slight patio for fresh pancakes and fellowship with their brother dorm.

Around the World in Sweazy Days: an event that highlights the international members of the dorm with native food, music, and activities.
Sweazy Camping Trip: An event where the most adventurous (or those who wish to become more adventurous) venture out into the wilderness to soak in God’s beautiful creation and to enjoy fun times together.
Ritz Blitz: A formal, brother-sister event in the spring. Slight and Sweazy dress up for an evening where they enjoy group games such as murder mysteries and game shows, fellowship, and hors-de ’oeuvres.
