Dan Kent, ’10 Sociology / Special Education Before I knew much about Bridgewater, a friend brought me here for Springfest, and I realized that this was a place where I could really get involved. The special ed program looked great, too – so I applied. Ever since arriving, I’ve been doing community service, and I feel like I’ve found my calling. Dr. Jonathan White, one of my sociology professors, introduced me to his high school mentoring program and the Social Justice League, and these have changed my life. My fraternity is thought of on campus as a community service organization, and my long-term goal is to start a nonprofit. I have an older brother who is a cancer survivor, and I’ve worked at Paul Newman’s camp in Ireland, but the faculty here at Bridgewater opened my eyes to even more ways of contributing. Dr. White and Dr. Michele Wakin have both been mentors to me. I didn’t expect to work closely with faculty members like this, and the experience has been transformative.
