The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.
When did you graduate? Simon? I graduated this past may. Then I'm also here with my friend and sweetmeat Liam. When did you graduate? Hopefully, in three years, though. At this point, Who knows? So let's ask them a few questions. I was a senior this past spring, so I just graduated. I was an English major, but they did a lot of feeder stuff as well. I'm I'm undeclared twenty what I want to do. That's one of the great things about here that you can pretty much not have any idea what you want to do for the first two years of your time here. Wait, like four majors right now and not having anyone staring it down because all the classes were so amazing. Simon, could you talk about what you did in your free time here, Hill? Liam, talk about what you're doing. Uh, what I did in my free time like, extracurriculars air. I did like a lot of theater, which ended up actually being like, professional experience for me, but actually came into hell as a pre med student. I just primo stuff for actually, three years, um or two and a half. Then I sort of made that transition on DH er what else do I do with my spare time? I was in an archipelago group called The Dukes of Gale. Do you go to Yale? Rush The Duke's letter? Um, and I took a year off, sort of in the middle of my career, to be in this group called the Within Poofs like playing with. So they're this very, very old, aka Telegroup, where basically, if you get in, you take the year off school to tour around the country, in the world with them. So I think over the course of the year we hit up like thirty states and twenty four countries. When I'm not playing bovine creatures, I also enjoy acting as humans. I, um, kind of put a registration project is midterms are coming up, So go vote, vote and s. Oh, yes, we do a lot of shows here right now trying to get five by doing three shows at a time. So that should be fun, eh? So wish me luck and good luck to you. What would be one advice that you would give to a perspective yearly or just a perspective? Polish, too. Honestly, Teo, to broaden out your base, explore new things. My first year here, I thought I knew that I wanted to, Peter. Then as the year went on, there were so many different things going on and it it can feel a little overwhelming, but in the best possible way. So I really wish that my my first year I had I had focused more on on not just sticking to my comfort zone, but really brought me down my base and and meeting new people who maybe we weren't interested in the same things that I was just getting to know more about those things and those people, even if I didn't end up pursuing their field just to learn about how intelligent and capable and really inspiring other students and faculty. Uh, like branching out during your first year is super important and lovely. I think that actually even apply to, like, prior to your first year at wherever you end up. Like, I think college is a time where everybody sort of grows into the person that they're going to be for the next forty years on Duh, You want to pick a place that likes speaks to you as a person, so that you can, like, don't go into a college being like, Okay, well, this is exactly how it's going. Okay, well, this is a place that I can see being a good place for me to like experience and grow intellectually and that sort of thing.
