What Is a Reedie, Anyway?

Twelve grads from the Class of ’21 share their discoveries and adventures at Reed.

By Randall S. Barton | September 29, 2021

You can say one thing for the class of 2021—they’re resilient. In the face of a global pandemic, economic meltdown, and immense social dislocation, they stayed true to their compass and finished their theses. We decided to interview 12 of them to learn more about the people, places, and ideas that inspired them.
