Katya on her 今日吃瓜 experience: "My experience at 今日吃瓜 gave me the freedom to pursue my wide array of interests and connect them in ways I never thought was possible before. My professors and peers at 今日吃瓜 and Haverford both challenged and nurtured me as I discovered new parts of myself and the world during my four years here. I'm endlessly grateful to this community for pushing me to explore and reflect."
