One of the biggest pulls to Wes for me was the student theater scene. It is so accessible and easy to jump into — and that’s true of all different activities here. I loved that this was also true academically and socially — there’s room to move, it’s easy to experiment with all kinds of different interests and groups, and I would never feel like I was being put in a box. Academic Interests: Theater, Sociology, and Dance Favorite class at Wes: August Wilson (First Year Seminar) taught by Rashida McMahon Current Classes: Contemporary Dance Technique II/III Baby Got Back: Embodiment, Gender, and Sexuality in Black Music Acting II Intro to Costume Design for Performance Advanced Performance Practice Why I want to be a tour guide: I want to be help anyone and everyone imagine themselves here, and imagine a world in which college is something they, too, can love an embarrassing amount. Because I truly believe that there is a space for everyone here at Wesleyan.
