“Hold close to your friends, family and faith. Everything in life around you will change constantly. In all the learning and growing, these are the things that will anchor you and remind you of what is truly important and sustaining in your life. Say yes to as much as you can, learn as much as possible, and stay active in all sense of the word, but never be afraid to put yourself and your own sense of balance ahead of all else.” – Katherine Colborn ’10 | What Would You Tell Your 12th Grade Self?
