Macy Lipkin'23一直在考虑Wellesley很长一段时间。“我的六年级科学老师去了Wellesley-Cindy Krol '02 - 我实际上想要beher, so naturally I decided when I was 11 that I was going to come here, too,” she says.

莱普金，和平与司法研究专业，在附近的弗拉姆，群众中长大。，并承认她在整个校园里有一些在校园里出现。“

When Hurricane Sandy canceled her public school classes but Wellesley stayed in session, she and her mother drove to campus for a look. “It happened to be Tanner Tuesday, so I came to Tanner.”

她进入校园进入校园，参加高中青少年的开放式房屋 - 虽然她只是八年级。“我去了这个戏剧课，教授就像，”好的，所以你们都是小辈，“我就像，”这是尴尬的，“她记得。后来，她的母亲正在与喜悦圣约翰，院长和经济援助的喜悦和经济援助，谁说，“哦，你是八年级学生的妈妈！”

In high school, Lipkin did consider other places. “I almost interviewed at Scripps because I hate the cold. But in the end, it was Wellesley,” she says.

Lipkin has kept in touch with her sixth grade science teacher from time to time. “I’ll email her once a year. She actually was on the crew team, like me. Last fall, I emailed her, ‘Hey, are you coming to watch?’ And she ended up watching Head of the Charles with one of my friends from down the hall.”

莉莉在高中毕业后占赤息，居住在厄瓜多尔通过一个名为全球公民年的程序。虽然在那里，她在公共广播电台。由于参加了Framingham公立学校的双向双语计划，Lipkin流利地讲西班牙语。“我在幼儿园开始学习西班牙语，”Lipkin说。“当然，我抱怨它，直到我15岁，可能是。但是，我擅长它，练习和真正有趣的是保持效果真的很有趣。“

After Ecuador, she threw herself into being a Wellesley first-year. “We had a good run, up until we got sent home in March 2020,” she says.

Lipkin的声音经常在校园中听到：她为入场处写了一个普通的博客，两年来她作为学生记者和学院的传播和公共事务办公室的摄影师。她也是新闻和意见写作的常见贡献者威尔斯leyNews.

最后秋天，Lipkin是康涅狄格州公共收音机的新闻实习生。一个星期五下午，她报道了一块据报道，该站在波士顿的公共收音机上播出。

“I made my WBUR debut! It was about research out of the University of Rhode Island on rising sea levels and increased storms,” she says. “It’s about one minute long, saying we have to look at these two things together, because rising sea is exacerbating the impacts of increased storms.”

Connecticut Public Radio hosts the New England News collaborative, a group of nine public radio stations in New England—which is how Lipkin’s piece ended up on WBUR.

“当它播出时，我在生物中，”她说。“我发现它来自我的船员教练，他们听到它的生活。它是如此令人兴奋。它真是太酷了，因为我认为最终认为这将是我做的事情 - 制作故事[for]收音机。但是现在，这将永远是我记得的是我的第一个基于美国的无线电故事。“

Lipkin希望在国外IES及其GaiasGalápagoS计划中向厄瓜多尔回到厄瓜多尔。“已经三年了。我想去看看我的宿主。我很高兴回去知道我这次做了什么。并且在GalápagoS中 - 大多数人都不会去那里。“

为了她的未来，Lipkin梦想着公共无线电工作。“如果我不得不打败，我觉得我可以完全做环境，气候变化。但我也对教育和覆盖学校非常感兴趣。也许不是学校董事会会议 - 但我需要一份工作！“

For someone who has been thinking about Wellesley since middle school, contemplating being a senior feels strange. “I started telling first-years that the time here goes by so fast. I know I sound like a grandma, but I’m like, ‘Really, it goes by so fast,’” she says.
