What is your favourite thing about the College?

The sense of community! The College is such a warm inviting place and there was always something for everyone. Meeting new people, having great and, at times, wild conversations, and participating in cultural and fun activities made my university experience truly a memorable and precious experience.

What will you miss the most?

The wonderful friends I’ve made along the way and the lovely professors who not only taught me invaluable skills and the most interesting highlights of (mostly) western culture.

What is your favourite reading/book/text from the program?

It’s much too difficult to choose but some of my favourite readings were the Iliad, the Human Condition, and an essay by Wendall Berry assigned in Professor Kellow Conservative Intellectual Tradition seminar called It All Turns on Affection.

What’s next for you?

I will be doing a Masters of Political Economy at Carleton!
