I chose Brandeis because...

Brandeis has some of the most academically driven and kind people I have ever met! At Brandeis I'm able to have two majors, three minors, be part of ten clubs, and I feel as though my whole community is cheering me on.

My favorite Brandeis tradition is...

The 24 hour musical! It's such a goofy tradition and a great way to break the ice with your new classmates. I think it really exemplifies how Brandeis students aren't afraid to try something new and take on crazy challenges. and the 24 hour musical is always so fun to watch!

My favorite place on campus, in Waltham or in Boston is...

My favorite place in the Boston area is Porter Square. You can get there via the commuter rail, and it's a really local area of Cambridge with great shops and places to eat. I grew up going to Porter Square Books on weekends, and it's still one of my favorite places to visit. The owner of the store is so nice, and they make great chocolate muffins.

My favorite activity outside of class is...

My favorite activity outside of class is working for the Brandeis Hoot! I am the Arts Editor, which means I can basically write about any media that I want, from student shows on campus to my favorite movies. I've gotten a ton of my friends to write for the paper as well, and it's such a supportive community and I've learned a lot about writing through the process. Student journalism was never on my radar before coming to college, and I'm so glad I gave it a try!
