Why Brown? “I was drawn to Brown by its reputation as having a culture of people passionate about academic exploration and learning. Upon further exploration I found that I also loved the campus, people, and environment of the school. As a person with diverse passions and career interests, the open curriculum is what promoted Brown from one of my top-tier choices to my dream school. I look forward to meeting an array of others also drawn to the pursuit of knowledge without exactly knowing where that knowledge may lead them.”
