My family had visited Northampton a few times,
and I really liked the town. That’s part of why I applied to Smith. When I visited
the campus to make my decision, I just got a good vibe. Since then, I’ve found that
there are things I really like about being at a woman’s college. The conversations
in the classroom are wide ranging. The overall environment is laid back. And the bathrooms
in the dorms are incredible -- you never see bathrooms like this at a college.
Before
coming to Smith, I had studied dance. I feel lucky to be at a college where there are so
many opportunities to perform. The five nearby colleges offer a lot of dance opportunities
and resources, too. I know that in the real world, dance isn’t often funded. I’m
grateful to be in a place where the arts matter. |
