I am currently pursuing a degree at Wheaton College (MA) in Business & Management and African, African-American Diaspora Studies. When I am not in the classroom I spend my time planning events for the Black Student Association and Renaissance House (Wheaton’s Theme house for Femmes of Color). I also work with the WiN Hub, Wheaton’s hub for social entrepreneurship.

I’m in the Class of 2022, and I’m majoring in Mathematics. I’m from East Bridgewater, Massachusetts, which isn’t so far away, so I’m pretty familiar with our local area. At Wheaton, I’m involved with the Tutor Outreach Program (and many other volunteer/service trips), Arts and Crafts Club, and the Residence Hall Association. Next year I will also be in my class council as treasurer, and on the executive board of our Community Service Club. During the school year, I work in the front office of Residential Life and SAIL, so if you ever come for a visit, we might cross paths! I’ll be one of the Orientation Coordinators for your NSO when you move in, and I’m also a part of a group made for you called SET (Student Engagement Team). My favorite place to hangout at Wheaton is in the Balfour-Hood Campus Center, but specifically in the patio area outside. It great to study, see my friends, and enjoy the sunshine.

Hello! My name is Maia Hay and I am a senior from West Bridgewater, Massachusetts. I’m a Studio Art and Political Science double major with a focus on the interdisciplinary connection between Public Art Activism and Public Policy. Along with my position this summer as the Academic Advising Intern, I am involved in a variety of different groups on campus; Class of 2020 President, Women’s Rugby, Voices United to Jam, May Fellows Advisory Board, Tour Guide, First Year Student Coordinator, and Office of the Arts Staff. I recently just got back from studying abroad at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland where I was apart of the Parliamentary Program. I absolutely love speaking about majors, experiences, and opportunities available as a Wheaton student, so please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.

I’m originally from Cocoa, Florida (so feel free to ask me about NASA) but moved to Massachusetts to attend Wheaton. I have a strong interest in political issues, especially those of equality and justice. I plan to get a Masters in government as well as go to law school after graduating. My dream is to work in politics, I hope to join up with a campaign or two next year. My other hobbies include watching movies and playing video games, engaging in activism, and chilling with my two dogs, Sherlock Holmes and Sirius Black.

I have always had a passion for helping others and especially enjoy working with kids. Throughout college I have coached synchronized swimming to children ages 6-18. After I graduate, I hope to continue this passion I have towards coaching and establish a program in a low-income, inner-city community in which children do not have the resources or access to a swimming/synchronized swimming program.
