Congratulations… YOU ARE A LYRA LADY!

As you all know by now, BC’15 is the inaugural class of the fabulous Barnard Constellations program! I’m proud to say that you are the very first class of Lyras, a constellation depicting the lyre (or harp, for the less musically-informed). We represent the arts, creation, imagination, and culture – all vibrant symbols that come to life on campus and throughout New York City.

Before I dive into the details, here is a bit about me. My name is Sara, and I hail from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am a senior studying Anthropology and Religion here at Barnard. I’m in love with the food scene in New York, have been involved with many musical and theatrical groups on campus, and have taken full advantage of the different internship opportunities in the City (from Tory Burch to Elmo).  I am a CL (Constellation Leader) because I love what the project stands for – community, connections, mentoring, fun, New York, tradition, and of course... BARNARD.  I hope that each Lyra-ette (does that work…?) will go all out this year and try new things with the support of her Lyra sisters because this is a new journey for us all.

So, here is a short to-do list in preparation for The Big Day (move-in and orientation kick-off):

Also, at the end of September get ready to smile for the camera and get intimate with Barnard campus for our September program…

So go finish packing your shower caddies and Barnard gear, because it’s almost time for you to head over to 117^th and Broadway. Team Lyra is exploding with excitement, awaiting your arrival!

All the love from Lyra-land,

Sara
