Alannah plans on taking a gap year before continuing her education.

 
When asked if there was a particular course or memory that stands out when looking back over her time as an English major she said:

 
“One time during my freshman year, Dr. Daniel Lewis decided to have class outside on a particularly beautiful day. We all just sat in the grass and we had class as usual, all a little bit happier. It was such a small moment, maybe only thirty minutes in the span of my college career, but I still remember it to this day. I was just getting used to college and I think that’s when I knew I made the right decision majoring in English.”

 
Congratulations, Alannah!
