The summer after my sophomore year, my church youth group flew to Boston for our annual mission trip. I had never been to Boston, let alone the east coast, so this trip extraordinarily unique. To this day, I vividly remember boarding at the Wallaston Station each morning of that week hearing the phenomenal accent that all true Bostonians possess.. To spend my next four years at BU would put me back in that same city that holds such fond memories of mine, from cheering on the Sox at Fenway Park, to making fresh PB&Js for the homeless at Boston Common. This city exposed me to culture I had never witnessed before, and at BU I can expect much more. In the classroom, Boston will challenge me intellectually, through its world-class professors, to opportunities in undergraduate research such as the senior design project.
