Macalester has offered an exceptionally warm and intellectually invigorating college journey up until now. The students and faculty at Macalester have a shared passion for learning and innovative ideas. Prior to attending Macalester, I had uncertainties about how I would adapt to this unfamiliar environment. However, after spending almost two years here, I have developed a deep affection for the college and its community members. Macalester is truly a remarkable institution that is often overlooked but holds immense value.
