Dana on her Bryn Mawr experience: "Whenever someone asks me about my favorite part of Bryn Mawr, I always immediately respond that the people are specifically what make the place special. I have never felt more supported or loved than by my friends and community here and know that the people I've met at Bryn Mawr will be in my life forever. Also, I've had some truly fantastic professors that made learning fun and interesting. Graduating from Bryn Mawr is a truly bittersweet thing to wrap my head around because while I will miss so many aspects of this place, I know it is time for me to take what I've learned here (both inside the classroom and out) and apply it to the real world."

- Working as a Spanish TA
- Serving as the Political Science senior major rep
