My name is Mary Beatty and I am from Guilford, Connecticut. My pronouns are she\/her\/hers. My family includes my mom, dad, and older sister who is a junior at Tulane University. I also have three dogs named Rudy, Jack, and Ivy. I applied ED to U of R so I am so excited to be here and meet all of you! In my hometown, I spend most of my time at the local riding school as an English-style equestrian. I always thought my career would involve kids, however, teaching young riders has definitely taught me the benefits of working with adults. On top of that, I was a member of the varsity crew team as a coxswain on the boys\u2019 team and was also the first female captain on that team. While I loved this experience, I will not be pursuing crew at U of R because I would rather not be practicing at 4 in the morning. I was also always involved in theatre and hope to continue that here! Finally, I am currently undecided and have no idea what I want to study. It is so nice to meet you all! <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_410\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-410\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-410\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.richmond.edu\/mci-fall2021\/files\/2021\/08\/IMG_8658-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.richmond.edu\/mci-fall2021\/files\/2021\/08\/IMG_8658-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.richmond.edu\/mci-fall2021\/files\/2021\/08\/IMG_8658-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.richmond.edu\/mci-fall2021\/files\/2021\/08\/IMG_8658-624x832.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blog.richmond.edu\/mci-fall2021\/files\/2021\/08\/IMG_8658.jpg 1136w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-410\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My dog Rudy and I!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone!
