1) What is your favorite MHC tradition? Why?
I think Elfing. I loved all the traditions. But Elfing was fun as a first year and fun as a sophomore. I loved giving and receiving all the surprises. I’m still in touch with my Elf, and she continues to be one of my favorite people.
2) Favorite M&C?
Magic Cookie Bars. The best.
3) Favorite class? / Favorite professor?
Pretty much any class I took with Sohail Hashmi – Middle East Politics, Comparative Middle East Politics, Just War and Jihad, etc. Basically, if he taught it, I took the class.
4) Favorite spot on campus to unwind? / Your favorite spot on campus?
Pratt. I loved practicing and studying there.
5) What would the you from college be surprised to know about your life today?
That I pursued the law, instead of economics. And that I married a guy who I dated my first year of college, broke up with, and swore I would never speak to again. Things change.

Hi All, Please go fill out our reunion survey (even if you didn’t go!)

I thank Rhea for inviting me to participate, even if I technically graduated in ’04. Does this mean I’m bi-alumnal? Can I come to both reunions?
1) What is your favorite MHC tradition? Why?
Mountain Day. Hands down. When I am in charge of…something…I’m totally instituting Mountain Day as a regular event.
2) Favorite M&C?
Magic cookie bars. I am shocked that not everyone answered this way, but variety is the spice of life I suppose.
3) Favorite class? / Favorite professor?
I like Life, the Universe and Everything much more in retrospect than I liked taking it at the time. Also Human Dimensions of Environmental change (or “people suck” as we liked to call it). In both cases because I learned things in those classes that I still remember and that are not at all related to anything I do now; it makes me feel well-rounded. Also, James Harold’s class on the Philosophy of Evil….I may be a big enough nerd that I could list half my classes as favorites, but I’ll stop there.
Favorite Professor: Eleanor Townsley. Best advisor ever, and the reason I ended up in grad school (eventually).
4) Favorite spot on campus to unwind? / Your favorite spot on campus?
Unwind/Work: The Dirty will always count as “on campus” in my memory, tied with the old Blanchard as Rhea described it.
Favorite spot on campus: Upper Lake.
5) What would the you from college be surprised to know about your life today?
I have a PhD and people actually pay me to study and talk about video games, and go all over the world while doing so….the me living it hardly believes it.

1) What is your favorite MHC tradition? Why?
Laurel Parade because it’s a tradition that I still get to enjoy as an alum.
2) Favorite M&C?
Too many to choose from! Either vegan cupcakes or magic cookie bars!!!
3) Favorite class? / Favorite professor?
Community Crossover. We visited a Head Start Program, a nursing home, and a prison and taught movement to each community. That class changed the way I view art and education.
4) Favorite spot on campus to unwind? / Your favorite spot on campus?
The green behind Dickinson. It’s a private oasis! Also, the green room at Rooke Theatre.
5) What would the you from college be surprised to know about your life today?
On my “Senior of the Week” column, I said that I wanted to go to grad school for theatre education and be a freelance theatre artist. I think the old me would be surprised to know that I actually did it! I’m living the dream!
