Student Profile
Name: Carolyn Daitch '14
Major: Theater and Philosophy
Involvement on campus: Theater Assistant and Dedicated Techie to many campus productions.
How has this involvement impacted your time at Brandeis? Before Brandeis, I had barely set foot in the theater; now, the theater has become my home. I love working, learning, and exploring in the theater and can imagine myself staying involved well into the future.
What made you get involved? Friends of mine literally pulled me into the theater to help with tech one day and the openness of the community kept me there. The theater was also a great a great escape, and I soon formed a dedication to working behind the scenes.
Do you have a favorite memory of your time with Student Activities or at Brandeis? The joy I get from working with my hands crafting a set piece in the shop or creating a scene solely with light is quite wonderful. I really enjoy working with my hands and having a concrete product, despite the inherent transience of the theater.
