What is one of your favorite memories of being at Wake?
“One of my favorite memories is returning to campus after being abroad in the Spring. It was the first time I’d seen my friends in months and the energy on campus was fantastic. I truly felt like I was coming home!”
Alice Hauser | Kennebunk, Maine
Stamps Scholar
What advice do you have for your fellow or prospective Scholars?
“Try new things, put yourself out there, and try not to let fear of failure hold you back… the worst thing that can happen when you try something new and it doesn’t work out is that you’re right back where you started and maybe a little bit wiser for it!”

What advice do you have for your fellow or prospective Scholars?
“Study abroad! I can’t emphasize enough how impactful those programs are and how unique of an opportunity it is to live in another country for 4 months while studying what you love. There’s so much world to see, and Wake really wants you to see it!“

What are your ideas for life after college?
“My current idea for life after college is to study cognition and its relation to performing arts. I currently do research with the theatre department on creating theatre for neurodiverse audiences, and I want to continue to explore how theatre can be made more accessible for everyone. I hope to follow this passion towards a higher education in cognition and eventually a career in creating accessible theatre.”

Name an organization/club you like being involved with?
“I love being involved in the Neuroscience club because it is a great opportunity to help students learn about brain research happening on and off campus. At the same time, we bring together students from many different disciplines (like Psychology, Biology, Physics, and even Computer Science!) and help raise awareness for important issues like mental health, Alzheimer’s disease, and much more!“
