Freshman year, I was enrolled in a first year seminar named after the lyrics within the famous song serious, “Just Another Brick in The Wall,” by Pink Floyd. This course focused on student movements, narrowing in on students’ intense desire to modify the system so that it better reflected and represented their needs. In this class, I hope to discover more in depth how the education system has changed over time, and the social pressures that assisted in bringing about such change. Furthermore, I hope to better understand which societal groups (whether they be religious, political, racial, etc) have the most prominent impact in bringing about academic reform/change, and why.

Looking forward to learning with you, especially when we examine Trinity’s student movements of the 1960s and 2000s.
