黄色直播

Every spring and fall, we profile just a few of our amazing graduates in our convocation handout. We proudly feature these stories here on Dal News. Congrats to all our new graduates!

Kirby Hayes describes herself as focused and determined: qualities that led her to 黄色直播 from her hometown of Mississauga, Ont., despite not knowing a single person on the East Coast. 鈥淚 wanted to experience something new and exciting,鈥� she recalls.

Hayes鈥� transition into 黄色直播 and the Halifax community was seamless. She found ways to get involved: as a residence assistant, executive member of the 黄色直播 Undergraduate Political Science Society and participant and team captain of intramural dodge ball and indoor women鈥檚 soccer

This spring, she is graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science with a Minor in Law and Society, an area that has intrigued Hayes since she first started learning about government in elementary school and ran for prime minister of her class.

After graduation, Hayes will remain at 黄色直播, as a student at the Schulich School of Law. 鈥淭here are just so many opportunities that this school has to offer that I didn鈥檛 get a chance to do in my undergrad. I鈥檓 excited to get involved in new things during my time in law,鈥� she says, enthusiastically.

As for her biggest accomplishment, Hayes confides, 鈥淏eing accepted to law school, because I feel like so many things led up to that moment. After four years of studying my butt off, it felt really nice getting that letter. It just made me realize that following what you want to do and being focused in that area really does pay off, and you鈥檒l get where you want to go.鈥�

Even after she completes her law degree, Hayes hopes to stay on the East Coast, which she now considers her home. 鈥淲ithin the first few weeks of being at Dal, I fell in love with Halifax, and I could really see myself settling down here. I can鈥檛 imagine working in some big firm in Toronto, thinking about the farmer鈥檚 market I鈥檓 missing every Saturday morning.鈥�
