Dyson Year in Review
An Olympic Volunteer
Carolyn Phillips '18, political
science, spent two weeks in Rio de
Janeiro volunteering at the 2016
Olympic Games. Phillips worked in
press operations, distributing press
kits and maintaining the Main
Press Centre and International
Broadcast Centre.
Her volunteer experience is an
important stepping stone toward
her post-college dream— to work
for the Olympic Committee or
Special Olympics. Phillips said the
experience had a profound effect
on her; "Meeting, befriending, and
learning from diverse people made
me realize how proud I am to be
an American, and that cultural
differences might be strong, but
one can always adapt."
