Prince thinks of WAC as family. 鈥淲hat I like about it is that your fellow students accept you for who you are and curious to learn more about where you are from.鈥 He added, 鈥淭here is always a fellow student or ISG to listen to you because they understand. They were once in our shoes!鈥 Being away from home, Prince also believes that WAC has helped him grow in terms being fully responsible for everything like never before. 鈥淭he anxiousness of transitioning into adulthood a far away from home quickly erodes when you meet other students on campus and realize you aren鈥檛 alone,鈥 he explains.
On campus, Prince is very involved in cultural events like Dancescape, a dance show hosted every year to showcase different genres of performances. Alongside members of the African Student Union club, Prince was able to showcase a part of African Culture to the WAC community through an Afrobeat dance performance. 鈥淓ven though Africa is a diverse continent the one thing that is common all through is our love for dancing,鈥 he said.
Throughout his time in the United States, Prince has encountered many misconceptions and stereotypes about Africa. However, he says that students and faculty at Washington College are very open minded and curious about learning about differing perspectives on Africa. 鈥淭his I believe is one of the main reasons I can call 蜜桃传媒 a home away from home,鈥 he added. When Prince graduates, he hopes to take back the skills he has developed to Kenya to make a difference.
