Senior Spotlight: Lydia Hill

Where will you be attending college and what is your intended major?

I will be attending Howard University with a major in marketing.

What other schools were you accepted to?

The University of Hartford, Pace University

Why did you choose this college?

I wanted to be immersed in a different culture and be in a big city.

Fondest memory of high school?

I have many memories that deserve mentioning, but this one may be unknown to people. The community service trip to St. Francis Inn in Philadelphia was an eye-opening experience. Seven other diverse students accompanied me and I unexpectedly became close to each of them. I also was able to connect with people I barely knew and were from a completely different demographic that is not represented at CBA.

What advice would you give to underclassmen?
