For The March addition of Revered Raiders, we reached out to current student TG Su’s sister, Maia Su. Maia graduated in 2022 and was excited to contribute to this story!
What is your current occupation?
“I’m currently a junior at Vassar College majoring in Studio Art and on the pre-med track.”
How did attending BT help you get to your current status?
“ BT prepared me for college very well. College Counseling in particular was extremely helpful in getting me into college in the first place, especially in refining my essays. Having smaller classes at BT helped me become comfortable with reaching out to my professors, which is a huge help in college.”
“To me, the most valuable experience I got from BT was from extracurriculars. Doing activities like art, Pirate Radio, and theatre really helped me identify and develop my passions. Art and music are still a huge part of my life in college.”
What are some plans you have for the future?
“My biggest priority right now is getting into med school after graduation. At the moment, that entails studying for the MCAT, applying to research internships, and making sure that I perform well in both my science classes and my art classes.”
How do you give back to BT?
Su has come back to BT multiple times to act as a camp counselor. She hopes to come watch some of our theater productions as well!
The alumn has something helpful advice to guide students through their high school years.
“Life is full of difficulties- you’re not always going to get A’s in college, you’ll encounter people you disagree with, and you’ll face stressful situations. Highschool is your training ground. Be open to learning from your mistakes now and it’ll better prepare you for adult life!”
Su stated that anyone is welcome to reach out to her with her email and instagram account!
