Juan Nysschen, Honors Student, started attending Indiana State in the fall of 2015. He was born in South Africa and later moved to the US at the age of three. He chose State to become a doctor because he knows the difference it can make after being exposed to hospitals as his brother received treatment for a rare form of leukemia cancer. One of the most valuable things Nysschen has done at State is volunteer to go on the Timmy Global Health trip to provide healthcare to an underserved country.
