Message for the rest of the Class of 2020: Bryn Mawr is the foundation that we didn't know we needed until now. Every year Bryn Mawr has allowed us to evolve and mold into the people we are today. It is truly an honor to graduate from Bryn Mawr. It has been challenging, and rewarding in all the best ways. 

Words of wisdom for the Class of 2024: Don't forget to venture into the city and apply what you learn through city internships. U Penn Economics and Latin American studies are great departments to expand your knowledge on Bryn Mawr courses.
