I\u2019m Claire Strother, I was born and raised in Arlington Heights, Illinois, a northwest suburb of Chicago. I\u2019m a current sophomore at St. Olaf with majors in American studies and women and gender studies with a media studies concentration, but who knows how that\u2019ll all turn out by the time I graduate. Beyond studying for my (subject to change) majors on campus, I work in the Dance Department doing all things digital, am on the KSTO exec staff, and serve as the Multimedia Director for the Manitou Messenger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was drawn to this interim trip in large part because I have a passion for both politics and the arts and there\u2019s no better place to see them interact on such a large scale. That being said, I think that it is vital to bring the knowledge and skillsets that are gained on this trip back to other communities to continue the fight for the arts in public spaces nationwide, as all politics start at a local level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m excited to spend my longest stretch of time that I\u2019ve ever been outside of the midwest here in the nation\u2019s capital; I think that being in the hub of American politics during an election year and with a looming Senate impeachment trial provides a heightened sense of connectivity and urgency that are not as much on the forefront of discussion in other areas of the country \u2014 it seems crazy to think that while we\u2019re in such a historic city we\u2019re also here during a time that will be remembered in history.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href='https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/datadc\/2020\/01\/06\/hi-im-jimena-fernandez\/' class='small-button smallsilver'>Newer<\/a> <a href='https:\/\/pages.stolaf.edu\/datadc\/2020\/01\/06\/106\/' class='small-button smallsilver'>Older<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello all!
