16 years ago, I enrolled in an Arabic language program in downtown Cairo that changed my life. This summer, one of my students started as a fellow in the same program: the Center for Arabic Study Abroad. A full circle moment and an experience, I hope, that will be equally transformative for him.

Look at what arrived in the mail today! To see this senior honors thesis take shape, from an undergraduate’s idea last year to something I can now hold in my hand (and proudly display on my bookshelf), was simply awesome.. Working with such students has been the highlight of my time at Dartmouth.

Speaking with fencers and their families this past week in Portland at Summer Nationals was such a joy. For anyone wishing to learn more about college recruiting or what it’s like to be a student-athlete in college, please feel free to DM me. I’d be happy to share what I’ve learned.

Fencing has shaped who I am. This week in Portland, it’s been a joy to share some aspects of my journey as a scholar-athlete and the lessons I learned with high school students, who aspire to compete in college, and their parents, who are invested in both their athletic careers and academic success.

In many discussions of education, we often hear about students, but we rarely hear from them. For this paper, I wanted to flip the script on these accounts by centering student voices from around the world and exploring what they can teach us about education today. www.polygence.org/white-paper-...
