Hi, I’m Shannon (she/her)! I am from Rye, NY, and I am a sophomore who hopes to either go into book publishing or child life after Hamilton. I am a DMC Multicultural Fellow and the president of GSU! I also do ballet and play water polo on campus, and I love reading, especially psychological thrillers and realistic fiction! My hot take is that not all classic literature is enjoyable.

Hey Hamilton community, we are the DMC fellows and we are so excited to see you all on campus this semester! We hold office hours on weekdays from 5PM - 10PM and on weekends from 10AM to 10PM. We would love to answer any and all questions you may have about the Blue House (aka, home for the DMC Community), give tours, help set up for club meetings, and support students and their organizations in any way we can!

Hamilton’s ASU is dedicated to creating a vibrant, inclusive space where students can celebrate cultures, build connections, and foster community. The E-board envisions ASU as both a safe haven and lively hub of activity, where students can feel seen, heard, and celebrated. Whether you’re looking to connect with your heritage, learn, support your peers, or simply try something new, ASU offers a place to belong.

If you were on your way to McEwen for lunch on Friday you might have stopped by GSU’s Know Your Rights Table! In collaboration with BLSU and FCC for the final event of disorientation week, GSU talked to passerby students to see what questions students had about their rights on campus and beyond.

On a beautiful September 9th evening, BLSU Welcome Back Bash began on the  front lawn of the DMC. For the second meeting of Disorientation week, BLSU welcomed new first year students to campus and reconnected with the Hamilton community. Music rang through the air as students lined up for food, chatting with each other and meeting new freshmen. 

Hey everyone, My name is Alexia or Lexi (she/her). I am originally from Jamaica but lived in Florida before moving to Clinton. I am the DMC's very own Social Media Fellow. I make all the posts on Instagram and our new Tik tok (@hamiltondmc on all platforms). My other campus involvement includes being a CAB Concert Coordinator and Support Staff for Sadove Student Center. Some of my interests include writing poetry, going on walks, doing yoga and swimming *especially if it's on a beach*. My hot take is that pineapple DOES belong on pizza :) 

CIF hosted their welcome meeting on the evening of Tuesday, September 9th to a packed DMC! The CIF eboard shared all of their plans for the semester and beyond. We can’t wait to see what they’ll accomplish next!

Students flooded through the doors of the Annex on Monday, September 8th to the sight of a long table filled with boba tea and two long rows of chairs facing each other. Characterized by “speed dating-style” socializing, sweet treats, and good music, the event is created with the intention of sparking initial connections with students to build upon throughout the year!

Hello, my name is Andrea (she/her). I am from South Carolina and I am a junior majoring in Biology and Chemical Physics and minoring in Math. I am the Multicultural DMC Fellow for La Vanguardia as well as president of LV! I am also president of QuestBridge and Co-Captian of our Figure Skating Club here at Hamilton. I love coffee ( just know every time I go to Euphoria I have already rationalized to myself how I deserve it), music (Spanish Rock is my current musical obsession), reading, writing, and lifting. My hot take is that while coffee is *delicious* bean soup, tea is just dirt water and that is worse. 

GSU is about building community and increasing visibility for queer and trans students. From game nights and movie marathons to thought-provoking discussions and speaker panels, GSU creates a safe space where identity is celebrated, explored, and uplifted.
