I chose Brandeis because...

Brandeis truly has the community that every college brags about. The people on campus are always super friendly and happy to see you, and it is impossible to walk around campus without seeing people you know.

My favorite Brandeis class/professor is...

Professor David Katz, a history professor, has been one of my biggest supporters. I've taken three classes with him so far, and I plan on taking more because he is knowledgeable, down to earth, and always available if I need help. He even helped me get an internship over the summer in Los Angeles!

My favorite Brandeis tradition is...

The involvement fair! At the beginning of every semester, over 200 clubs gather to showcase who they are, and it is always so overwhelming because of the sheer number of clubs I want to join. There is always a club for whatever you want to get involved with.

My favorite activity outside of class is...

I joined the Brandeis University Mock Trial Association during my first semester on campus despite having never done it before, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've met some of my closest friends through it, and it continues to be something I've become passionate about.

I'm passionate about...
