In the blink of an eye, my first year of college is over, and Dartmouth has catalyzed so many of the memories I've made so far!
I played out several scenarios in my head speculating how my first term of college would go throughout high school. In hindsight, those scenarios weren't the reality, and I think Dartmouth greatly contributed to that.
