Roots: Piece of advice for your pocket
Leaf Staffers Kirsten Thomas and Abby Lefton interview some departing seniors about advice they want the underclassmen to know and what it means to be a senior and an Aviator. The senior panel is made up of Bawitha Ceu, Ally Landrum, Mindy Kuertz, and Sam Ruskin. They speak to their own mistakes, what they learned over these last four years, and where it has taken them.
