Narratives from the Puget Sound Community
“One of my good friends on campus is a Chinese student. She’s excelled in college mixing academic success with social leadership. She always brings a different perspective to the table and is full of life. It’s impossible not be happy when she is around, and has made my college experience more positive.”

I felt really good afterwards for learning so much and understanding my friend better. I am now interested in attending a Unitarian service to learn more.”
