D-E 23

D-E has brought me two of the most important people in my life! I met my two lifelong best friends Bodhi Mathur ’23 and Lexi Trokhan ’23 during high school and even though we go to colleges in three different states now, our friendship continues to be a loving, constant presence as we navigate university. We continue to cheer each other on from afar, and they will always be the two people I call first whether I have good or bad news — I can’t wait to see the amazing things they do in the coming years. I admire Bodhi and Lexi with my whole heart and will be forever thankful that I met both of them during my time at D-E!

The mid- to late 1960s was a turbulent time, between three assassinations over 18 months and the Vietnam War, battling with our parents about the length of our hair and the style of our clothes (from which the term "unisex" became popular) and using the term "Ms."...
