Unlikely Friendships: Connections within the College House System

In our second interview in the series, we are joined by Penn Senior, psychology major in the College Maddie McGregor and recent Penn graduate from the College Class of ’21 Cognitive Science major and Computer Science minor, Fawad Syed. Fawad was Maddie’s RA in Ware College House in the spring of 2020 when the pandemic hit. Even though their time being together in person was truncated, they were able to develop a strong friendship that continues to contribute to their wellbeing. They have several other differences, yet they have been able maintain a strong and authentic connection that transcends these differences. Fawad and Maddie have very interesting things to say about Penn’s culture that go beyond their particular friendship. We can learn larger lessons about friendship from their compassionate insights in this conversation.
