STUDENT PERSPECTIVE
Maddy Tevonian ’24
“I did some study abroad experience in the fall of last year. I was in India living in a monastery studying Buddhism for three months, and that was amazing and life-changing. I was talking to people every day doing fieldwork and learning about religion and culture and art, and I was like, ‘This is what I need to do for the rest of my life.’”
