“Bethune is where I made many of the friends that I continue to stay connected with to this day. The college provided me the environment to study within its study halls, while also allowing me the freedom and space to develop my social and friendship connections. My Orientation experiences, as a first year and as a Team Leader, are some of my fondest memories, and the college supported some of the unique community-building events that I had in mind at the time, including the Breaking Bad Finale watch party that I spontaneously hosted to a full house back in 2015.”
