I was adopted from China before my first birthday.
Classical mythology. We got to learn about the Olympian gods from my favorite books, like Zeus, Hera, Hercules, and more. I get to explore the stories I fell in love with during middle school on a deeper level.
not many colleges offer my Classics major. Queens College has many history, English literature, and Classic courses that other colleges did not offer. I get support from my professors and the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Foundation. The one and one talks and help they give me, I don't think I could get anywhere else.
I intend to obtain a PhD in Classical studies in order to continue to diversify the field such as having more female representation.
