Your sophomore year can be a sweet spot in high school: you aren’t brand new, but you’ve still got time to explore and try different things.

One of the most compelling aspects of studying architecture in Rome is how quickly the extraordinary becomes familiar.

While I enjoy hanging out on the Slope, especially when the sun is out, I'm also grateful for the Lindseth Climbing Center, which gives me a space to challenge myself.

Before I started college, everyone told me that making friends would be “so easy.” You’ll meet people everywhere, they said.

Since my freshman year in high school, I knew I wanted to go to law school.

From my daily walks to class to the beautiful libraries, I am surrounded by a campus that not only is a beautiful backdrop to my college life, but also brightens my mood throughout the day.

In college, you have free rein to do whatever you want between classes. Every day can be different. My class schedule stays consistent, but other than that, nothing is set in stone.

I spent the summer of 2025 working as an archaeological excavator on the Casa della Regina Carolina Project in Pompeii, Italy.

Being on West Campus is very convenient! Besides my own dorm, there are four other dining halls, and there is the Noyes Recreation Center, which is the gym, a few steps away.

Whether it comes from friendships, student organizations, academic support systems, or quiet moments alone, your version of community should be whatever helps you feel welcomed here.
