Prospective student?
When I tell people here that I want to pursue a life in the arts, they say that’s awesome. Before coming to Stanford I was afraid to admit to myself that that was something I was even considering, and I was able to reach this point through professors in the English department, through seeing people who are thriving artists and writers, and through programs like Sophomore College. Stanford is working really hard here to find and support students like us, and we get to grab that and run with it. And I hope other students get that opportunity too, because it’s a wonderful thing.
