What Is Roberts Thankful For?
What are you thankful for?
This is the question we asked Roberts’ faculty, staff, students, and alumni.
“This year, I'm particularly thankful for my dreams as much as for having the resources and support to chase after them.
“I am equally grateful to those who want me to be happy. They are people who remind me to take a moment to savor little things in life like waves of laughter or a cozy blanket on a cold day.”
-Kate Nguyen’23 (Psychology and Chemistry)
“First and foremost, I am grateful for God's unwavering promise and His work in my life.
“I am also so appreciative of every member of the Roberts community; I would not be the person I am today without this amazing institution.”
