“One of my best friends at Carolina is Dori, whom I met my freshman year because both of us were involved in North Carolina Hillel and did a program called the BINA Initiative (an Israel exploration program for UNC faculty, students and staff) together. Both of us are strong women, so we didn't exactly get along at first! But at the end of the year we bonded quickly, and that summer we ended up doing the same summer program in southern California and going on a road trip in the sequoias.
