I look out my dorm room window towards the exquisite New York skyline. I feel the crisp September air breeze through my hair, infused with centuries of rich history. The same air breathed by thousands of brilliant, world-changing minds from Alexander Hamilton to Ezra Koenig.

To receive the opportunity to interact with the brilliant minds of my time and to hear about their philosophies and experiences from their own lips, giving me a glimpse of the impact my generation will have on the future.
