Bio 

Hello everyone! My name is Jasmine Williams and I am a ’20 with a major in Sociology and a minor in Education. I am a Senior Admissions Fellow and an Associate Fellow of the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship. I have completed two “Hanover FSPs” during my time at Dartmouth and used to be a coxswain for the Women’s Varsity Rowing team. During my free time, I love to hang out with friends and listen to music!

Jasmine's D-Plan

What's a D-Plan?

    • FallOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: GRK 1 - Introductory Greek

      Having already taken Greek in high school, I was excited to get a better look at the ancient language at Dartmouth. Fortunately, the class was incredibly small (only four people!) which allowed our professor to interact with us closely and develop a personal relationship with each of us.

    • WinterOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: WGSS 37/SOCY 49 - Social Justice and the City

      I was still getting my footing on Dartmouth’s ten-week terms this winter, but this class made the adjustment much easier. The course focused on the practice of social justice in an urban setting.

    • SpringOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: EDUC 57 - Social, Emotional, and Moral Development

      This was my first introduction to the Education department and I would still consider this to be one of my favorite cases at Dartmouth. Professor Tine opened our eyes to topics that influence the trajectory of social, emotional, and moral development, such as gender roles, self-esteem, and motivation.

      Favorite Class: EDUC 62 - Adolescent Development and Education

      My favorite moment in this class was when we were split into two groups for a class debate. We had to argue whether or not we believed that violent video games created violent adolescents. I was assigned to the group that was tasked with convincing the class that violent video games do make violent teenagers. After a hard-fought debate, my group won!

    • WinterOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: ENGL 53/AAAS 81/FILM 47 - Black Noir

      In the winter, I was taking four courses, as well as training with the rowing team, so I was bit pressed for time. Although it was tough, this class was a true highlight! We spent the term reading black American literature, such as crime novels, and the Blaxploitation era of the 1970s and watching a few films.

      Favorite Class: SOCY 1 - Introductory Sociology

      I spent a large amount of time traveling for rowing races this term and Professor Rogers was incredibly accommodating and understanding! We delved into topics such as race, class, gender, culture, and connected them to key theories in sociology and this class set the foundation for my love of sociology today.

    • SummerOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: LATS 5/SOCY 49 - Complexities of Latinx Identities in the US

      I was so surprised by how much I loved this class. For a paper, our professor encouraged us to look at the current issues regarding immigration that we face in America and develop ways to rectify these issues. This has been one of my favorite classes at Dartmouth!

    • FallOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: EDUC 60 - Learning and Education Across Cultures

      During this term, students were broken up into groups and asked to analyze the ways in which a certain demographic learns as a term project. It was incredibly insightful to walk around the classroom and look at everyone’s professional posters on the last day of class.

    • WinterOn-Campus

      Favorite Class: Hanover FSP

      This was my first Hanover FSP, where I was the Student Life Intern at the Collis Center for Student Involvement. I helped coordinate Winter Carnival and Collis’ 40th Birthday Celebration.

      Favorite Class: Senior Admissions Fellow

      Here we are at my eighth straight term on campus! WOW! This term, I am starting my role as a Senior Admissions Fellow, where I will be leading Information Sessions for prospective students, working on projects around the office, and blogging.
