<li>I am excited about Yale’s atmosphere - coming from a school in which very few people appreciate education, I am looking forward to Yale’s almost electric intellectualism and to having classmates who are passionate about learning. Oh, and I’m also excited about Yale’s architecture - gotta love the Collegiate Gothic. ;)</li>

<p>“Classical music, reading (anything from Tolstoy to Tolkien)”</p>
