It was that the first moment when I visited Yale, I experienced a culture focused on getting the best out of yourself and fellow students by teaming up in the learning process.\u00a0I immediately felt a connection with the field hockey coaches and the campus. By living on Yale\u2019s campus, I also hope to learn from the diverse backgrounds of my fellow students and contribute to this process myself and to enrich my perspectives and that of others.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nFenne Mulder<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
