David Hudson ’23 is from a small, public urban high school in Brooklyn, New York. He knew instantly that Grinnell was his dream school when he visited as a middle schooler!

Enya Gamble ’22 knew that the best way for her to grow was to be surrounded by different people, so she chose Grinnell. She indeed grew a lot, by interacting with diverse people, as well as through swimming, water polo, the College’s individually advised curriculum, and by creating an unconventional off-campus study.

Coming from a small town in Minnesota, Maddie McCabe ’22 was struck by the diversity and passion within Grinnell’s student body. She joined the track team, found a job hosting events as a Class Ambassador, and worked with her on-campus mentors to identify her core values, do nutritional research, and prepare for a career in public health.

Nora Leahy ’24 arrived at Grinnell with her college life planned out to the T. Fortunately, none of her plans came true! With new passions and community, she explored new horizons.

Sophie Noyes ’24 looked forward to a college community. From being theatre’s frequent flyer to their passion for mental health and therapy to studying in Spain, they created one with people they absolutely adore.
