Her Campus: What attracted you to Brandeis?

DC: I write and run the Her Campus Instagram, I chat and talk about midyear programs at Admissions, and I assistant stage manage for the Undergraduate Theater Collective.
HC: What has been your favorite Brandeis memory so far?
DC: I’m a midyear, so I this is my first semester on campus. I was in London last semester and some of my best memories there were traveling to Istanbul, Wales, and Scotland with my friends. So far on campus, one of my favorite moments have been hanging out in Village with all the other midyears and sharing our first semester experiences.
HC: What advice do you have for incoming first years?
DC: It will seem like people around you have their act together, but everyone is in the same place. It’s okay to explore new things and not know what you are doing.
