Alumni Voices

Brett Siegal ’20

Beaver Reflections:
I had an amazing experience during my time at Beaver. Being a lifer, I saw the school transform by investing in projects like the turf field and the Research & Design Center. I had so many incredible teachers who challenged me and changed the way I think about the world. Yolanda Wilcox-González had an enormous impact on my global perspective by teaching through all lenses and encouraging her students to be thoughtful global citizens.

What is #happeningnow in your life:
Currently, I am a freshman at Boston University studying business. Starting college during COVID definitely challenging, but BU is doing a great job keeping everyone healthy. Although most of my classes are online, it hasn’t been difficult to adjust because of Beaver’s emphasis on using technology to enhance learning. I have also been working on this alumni voices project. It has been an amazing opportunity to work alongside the philanthropy and engagement team and meet so many amazing Beaver alumni from various decades!

“The creative atmosphere at Beaver is amazing. Students are always collaborating and working on innovative projects and using technology in new ways.”
