Why did you choose to attend Macalester?
I chose to attend Macalester for its quirky, diverse, and select personality. At Mac I have the chance to not just meet many new people from across the states and around the world, but also to become close friends with them. I loved that the students at Mac consistently break stereotypes by participating in a myriad of activities in combinations that are not often thought of together.
