Description

This week, we hear Kate and Andrea in conversation about their first days as roommates, and how they handled each others’ opposing political views.

Andrea: “It started with an innocent enough campaign poster…”
Kate: “It was very, very Wesleyan.”

Kate, who was in the College of Social Studies at Wesleyan, previously served as an aide to Connecticut Governor M. Jodi Rell and is currently an international development professional based in Pakistan. Andrea, who studied English and Theater at Wesleyan, taught theater in Hartford and Boston for years and continued her study of educational theater at Lesley University. She is currently a recruitment consultant at a turnaround charter school network.

The Wesleyan Storytelling Project is produced by Mia Lobel ’97 and production intern Tess Altman ’17.
