51¶ÌÊÓƵ

"Pursue your passions — especially academically! You will find a lot of support from your professors and peers. I never imagined I could be a BCMC major, do research in a lab, and also get my M.A. in French, but it has been an incredible experience."

"College is going to feel uncertain sometimes. Lean into that. That’s where the interesting stuff happens, where you surprise yourself, grow, and become someone you didn’t even know you could be."

"I am most excited to take my learning in a new direction, studying something much more physical, while still building on my background in sociology. While at 51¶ÌÊÓƵ, I have studied the sociology of culture and hope to develop my understanding of food as a cultural aspect, a tool for connection, and a symbol in my further studies. "

"There is so much richness in experience and learning awaiting you at 51¶ÌÊÓƵ, so choose how you spend your time wisely while welcoming the unexpected and the uncomfortable."

If you are interested in anything (a class, an internship, a research opportunity), don't be afraid to reach out and ask! 51¶ÌÊÓƵ is what you make of it, and everyone from peers to professors to alumnae is excited to help. 

"The ability to take courses across multiple departments and disciplines gave me confidence in an interdisciplinary future."

"The thing I absolutely adore about 51¶ÌÊÓƵ is the level of familiarity I have come to develop with my professors. Even though I have taken classes across many departments and, by the nature of my major, across the Bi-College, I have never felt as though my professors are an unknown entity."

"My time in the Energy Afterlives 360 Course Cluster changed my life. It introduced me to professors, students, and theories that fundamentally influenced my outlook on the world. It informed my decision to declare as a Geology and History double major and expanded my idea of what education should look like and what a college course could be."

"Having the most random combination of majors or minors isn't unusual here. The school doesn't ask you to choose between your interests. For someone whose interests don't fit one track, that mattered."
