FAVORITE MEMORY FROM HIGH SCHOOL
My Model United Nations club traveled to Vancouver to compete at an international conference, and it was a trip that I will never forget. We competed against schools from all over the world, dominated the awards and then celebrated at a karaoke club!
THE TEACHER WHO MADE A DIFFERENCE
Mr. Bill Topich has been the most influential teacher and mentor in my life. In the classroom, he has fostered my intellectual curiosity through research opportunities and discussions, and in the community, he has helped me find my voice and become an active, engaged leader.
