Meggin Thwing Eastman: The professors were all great. I especially enjoyed the Don Quijote seminar.
Question: How did majoring in Spanish help prepare you for what you do now?
Meggin Thwing Eastman: It didn’t directly prepare me for what I do now. But I did go on to get a Masters in Latin American Studies at Berkeley, where I also learned some Portuguese. I periodically use both languages in my day to day work to read public reporting by companies based in Latin America that don’t release all their documents in English.
