Her Campus: Why Brandeis?

Nick Love: I was making a choice between Brandeis and a large state school, University of Iowa, which at the time was my number one choice. The main thing that swayed me to come to Brandeis was the people I met here. Whether it was faculty, staff, or students, they were all very passionate and motivated about some cause or topic. In the end I decided the atmosphere and people of Brandeis is what I wanted to surround myself with, which is what led me to choose Brandeis.

HC: What are your extracurriculars?

NL: I hold Office hours for the Pottery Club, I am the former president and treasurer of the Queer Policy Alliance, and the former treasurer and leadership member of the Muslim Student Association.
