Ece is currently a Div I student who is about to end her first year. By the end of S11, she will be done with all her Div I requirements and she's planning to focus on political theory, comparative politics, history, Middle Eastern Studies, journalism and nonfiction writing in her Div II. Ece hopes to be done with all Five College International Relations Certificate requirements by the end of her Div II. She is also committed to taking one course from Smith's French Studies Department every semester, and although French doesn't leave free time for other languages, Ece is enthusiastic about learning and practicing Arabic.
