Name: Madeline BrophyYear: 2ndMajor: Global studies and Pre-Comm with a minor in French, hopefully!
If you were a professor at UVA what would the name of your class be?
The title would be: Cultivating Happiness through Humanitarian Aid and it would be in the global studies department. I would really want to teach this class because people need to help others, it’s a fact of life. The issue today is that people have become so individualistic; we need to see the bigger picture and help those around us.
What gets you in the mood for fall?
I don’t want to be basic; my first thought was riding boots…
BUT I love that Charlottesville has the most beautiful color change! The leaves turn into so many different colors, it looks like a real live painting.
If you could relive one experience of your summer, what would that be?
Flying in my Dad’s F-18! It was so cool being able to see what my Dad does for a living everyday.
How do you get ready for exams? Any tips?
1) My first tip is to go to 7-11 and buy two double shot Starbucks drinks (they’re only four dollars!). The first drink is to get you through the night; the second one is to help you wake up in the morning after you’ve slept for like, two hours.
2) Bring a blanket and socks to Clemons (because it’s 24 hours and you want to get comfortable).3) Study until you’re the last person on the second floor of Clemons.
Favorite…
Favorite Bodos order?Sesame bagel with egg and sausage.
Favorite fall tradition?Trick or treating- I still trick or treated until last year but then realized I was too old… But like free candy?!
All time favorite Halloween costume?Identity crisis: I dressed up as this two years in a row. It’s a real crowd pleaser so you get more candy! Basically you wear all black and then stick 200 nametags on your outfit.
Favorite holiday?Christmas!
Fall accessory?A little soft fuzzy grey hat that keeps me warm when it’s negative degrees outside. It’s magical!
