What is the most valuable thing you’ve learned at K?
The most valuable thing I’ve learned at K is the importance of sharing. K is a very hard school. If you feel like you are struggling, it’s important to know you are not alone. Sharing can be freeing and helpful. Also, K has a big variety of perspectives. It’s always important to be aware of other’s perspectives and to share your own. You can learn so much from others.

What has been your favorite class at K?
My favorite class at K has been Feminist Psychology. I made some very close friendships in that class, learned a ton, and learned more about myself. I also think that class gave me a very good perspective of what the Psychological field is lacking when it comes to women’s studies, and how there is so much room for growth as I plan to go into the field.

I have studied philosophy, religion, biology, and chemistry at K so far. I am super thankful for my widespread education and how I can apply all of these topics to the study of psychology.
