RACHEL DONNELLAN Class of 2023 she/her/hers Hometown: Newton, MA Major: Management with Leadership concentration; IDCC

Campus Involvement: Campus Activities Board, Bentley Ambassador, Valente Center Research Assistant

Favorite Memory From Orientation: A super small but impactful memory I have from Orientation came from attending one of the "How to Succeed" presentations for one of our core curriculum classes. Prof. Pierre Louis walked in and pointed out that no one was sitting in the front row of seats. She told us that because of that, we had all already failed! She explained the importance of small choices like that and the impact that they can have on our learning experience at Bentley. From that point on, in every class I've taken at Bentley, I have sat in the front row :) Tip For New Students: Try your best to avoid comparing yourself to your friends and peers! It can be easy to get caught up in what everyone else is doing or accomplishing around you; HOWEVER, this is your life and your Bentley experience. It's important to celebrate what makes you and your path unique. Follow and grow in your own passions, values, and experiences and support others in theirs!
