If you open and close (without using the '''CLOSE WINDOW''' button) enough windows you will receive a message that says the maximum number of cookie values has been reached. To resolve this problem, close all open windows and tabs, using the '''CLOSE WINDOW''' button, log out of WA and restart your browser.

Ahacket2: /* The Weirdest Thing That Has Happened To Me */

==Ashley Hackett==

Hello, my name is Ashley Hackett and I graduate in the year 2018. I am originally from Royalton, Minnesota which is a small town located in central Minnesota. I am majoring in Public Accounting. Outside of class, I like to hang out with my friends and watch movies or go out to eat. During the summertime I enjoy working on the farm with my family.

One thing that describes my life:
http://theodysseyonline.com/marquette/11-things-ive-learned-about-dancers/205957

==Fun Facts About Me==
*I love to hunt and fish.
*Growing up, I showed dairy cows at the State Fair.
*I am considered a genius when it comes to doing something in the kitchen.
*I have never broken a bone, but, I have had 4 surgeries in my life so far.
*My favorite is Scotty McCreery. I was able to meet him for my 18th birthday!

==The Weirdest Thing That Has Happened To Me==
*When I was a kid, my cousin accidentally hit me in the head, right above the left eyebrow, with a golf club.
