Alexander Hamilton, our first Secretary of the Treasury and one of the…

My experiences volunteering for Food Recovery Network and the Knox Farm have been quite transformative. I never would have thought that I would have my quench for volunteering come from taking School and Society. Initially, I wasn’t completely sure about whether or not I would enjoy the experiences, but I ended up getting so much out of all the experiences.

Other religious individuals in addition to the clergy had their own negative opinions on the female rulers.
