Julie Petersen, '09 was thrilled to see the Music Department growing so rapidly through programs, funding, and the completion of Wilson Hall during her four years at W&L. A pre-med and Shepherd Poverty student, this political science major enjoyed her involvement in Applied Voice lessons, Chamber Singers, and the annual Bentley Musical including a fantastic performance as Bianca in 2007's "Kiss Me, Kate".
