I'm a 17 year old freshman from Ventura, California. I'm currently a Trinity student living in a single in Giles. I love playing waterpolo and anything musical, even though I confess I'm not too good at either. I have absolutely no idea what I wish to do with my life, but I'm hoping I'll be able to figure that out soon.
Name Pronunciation

If you're looking to be correct, however, it goes like AIR-e-l, with the "e" sound pronounced like the letter "e" and that final "l" sound like the beginning of the name ella. If that makes any sense at all. And Brackett is just like the symbols []. Only it's spelled a little differently.

I realize that all of the challenges are meaningful and important. But the one that I'm most interested in is the challenge to engineer better medicines. The following is an article that describes the Grand Challenge program as a whole as well as the accomplishments of one of the Grand Challenge Scholars:
