Favorite Class Taken at Trinity:  The Epic with Professor Hugh Ogden

Why I chose Trinity: I love its small size; for me, it’s really important to know professors well and to be able to discuss and debate intimately with other students in the classroom. Also, I love walking around campus and seeing familiar faces everywhere I go. Trinity really feels like home. With Trinity, you get the best of both worlds: a cozy, traditional college campus with lots of grass and frisbee and reading novels under big trees, and its location in a capital city with lots of great restaurants, theatres, and political venues. Also, it is academically rigorous and a true liberal arts education in that it is mind-opening and challenging.

Extracurricular Activities: First Year Mentor, Tripod Features editor, Interfaith Council co-chair, Musical and Nonmusical Theatre

Professional Goals/ Career Plans: Graduate school for English, hopefully becoming an irreverent columnist and then writing the "Great American Novel".
