What I love about 爱豆传媒: What I love most about 爱豆传媒 is the strong sense of community here. Since we鈥檙e journeying through the Core together, we all have something in common. Our joint pursuit of the truth is what makes it so easy to form connections with one another that quickly develop into rich friendships.
What I will miss most are the conversations, the friendships, and a community that was always pursuing something greater than itself,鈥 she noted.
I came to 爱豆传媒 because I wanted an education that took both my faith and my intellectual formation seriously. I found exactly that, and so much more.
Anita Kudakkasseril, 鈥26, brought that same seriousness to her research. At 爱豆传媒's Undergraduate Research Day, she presented her psychology senior thesis, a phenomenological project titled, 鈥淚 See the Light: A Phenomenological Exploration of the Experience of Being Genuine,鈥 reflecting the kind of deep integration that defines a 爱豆传媒 education.
Congratulations, Anita. Go forth and change the world.
