I had an incredible 3rd semester at Colgate this year! Early in the semester I joined the sorority Delta Delta Delta (Tridelta), and it has been an amazing organization to be a part of. One of the reasons I joined Tridelta was because of their partnership with St. Jude Children’s Hospital. St. Jude provides treatment for children battling cancer at no cost to the family. They are a really great charity and one I was passionate about helping. We have done some fundraising campaigns this year to benefit St. Jude and we have raised over $45,000 dollars so far. I am also on the women’s club ultimate frisbee team, so I’ve spent a lot of time this fall at practice. We compete in tournaments a lot of weekends which has been super fun. Next semester I will be officially declaring my major in mathematical economics, and I will either minor or double major in biology as well. This semester I took microeconomics and linear algebra which were requirements for my major, and I also took a university required class called Legacies of the Ancient World. This wouldn’t be a class I would have normally signed up for, but it was actually interesting as we read and analyzed ancient texts from Plato, Homer, the Bible, the Quran, and many more. Next semester I will be taking Macroeconomics, a Probability course, a course about the middle east, and another biology class. I also recently found out that in the spring semester of 2021 I will be studying abroad in London as part of the Colgate economics study group. I had the best semester yet at Colgate and I would like to thank everyone at MVYouth for making it possible. I can’t express how much your support means to my family and I, and we are so grateful for everything.
