How has Dickinson prepared you for life after graduation?
The rigor of Dickinson's pre-health track as well as the neuroscience major instilled an immovable resilience and work ethic in me that I don't believe I would have attained at another institution. The willingness of professors in my field to be open to casual conversations and relationship building helped me develop important interpersonal skills, especially as they relate to established and accomplished individuals. Navigating the small and interconnected social circles at Dickinson has become second nature and has helped me develop a sense of the importance of reputation and self-worth.
