Biology major and fine arts minor Natalia Amaral Marrero '18 will attend Purdue University’s College of Veterinary Medicine this fall.

“I‘m excited for a career that will constantly challenge my understanding of biology in a context that I find completely rewarding and beneficial to society,” she says. “I am very grateful to have had the opportunity to complete my undergraduate education at Haverford, where I was able to prepare for vet school by gaining a general literacy in STEM fields, learning the necessary skills and concepts, while also becoming more competent in academic spaces that are not restricted to my biology major.”

"Where They're Headed" is a blog series detailing the post-graduation plans of the Class of 2018.

Summer Centered: Bilge Yilmaz '21

Bilge Yilmaz '21, a prospective political science major and music and visual studies double minor, is working for La Blogothèque, a French broadcast and production company.

"I experience a very unique working environment where everyone is immensely passionate about what they do—they communicate and brainstorm so intricately and so naturally that I can now understand how the magic happens,” Yilmaz said. “I hope to learn from these work ethics and collaboration skills."

Yilmaz's internship is supported by the Smart Family Fund and the Center for Career and Professional Advising. "Summer Centered" is a series exploring our students' Center-funded summer work.
