Nicole Auclair
Nicole Auclair is a junior at Monmouth College in Monmouth Illinois.
After graduating from Hinsdale South High School in Darien Illinois, in
June of 2000, she came here to pursue her learning in biology and
chemistry. She has taken botany, zoology, cell biology, and genetics as
well as organic and general chemistry here at Monmouth. Nicole is a very
active student at her school. Not only is she involved in service clubs
and band, but she is also a three year member of the varsity golf team as
well as a co-captain of the women’s softball team. Currently she is also
