Though graduation will be bittersweet, I’m glad that many of my classmates will also be moving to New York! I’d like to thank all of the wonderful faculty in the history department for defining my academic experience here at Dartmouth. A special thank you to my adviser and mentor Professor Lagomarsino. I can only hope that one day I will be as good at my job as Professor Lagomarsino is at teaching history!
