Adelaide Canning ’25

Hometown: Hanover, NH
 

What class(es) are you most looking forward to and why?
I’m not really looking forward to any class in particular because I’m just so excited for them all and to explore a wide variety of subjects and classes during my time at Smith.

What item from home do you wish you could bring (but can’t for some reason)?
I wish I could bring my cats, but I can’t and I’m going to miss them very much. 

What’s a favorite holiday tradition of yours?
This doesn’t really apply to one particular holiday, but in my family, we love doing jigsaw puzzles, and we always have puzzles themed to each holiday. We have so many Christmas puzzles now it becomes a sort of race to see if we can finish them all before we have to put them away with the other decorations. 

What piece of advice would you give to someone considering applying to Smith?
I would say just go for it because you never know. I did not think I was going to end up at Smith (even after getting accepted because I just wasn‘t sure), but I am so, so glad that I did.
