Judith Pond
Quest Staff Member 2005



Hometown:
Mt. Vernon, NY School: Stanford
Major:
Psychology

Judith has spent the past nineteen years in search of an understanding of such abstractions as truth and knowledge. She still has not found what she is looking for, and if she is lucky, she will continue to search forever, with an ever-deepening appreciation of her world. Here at Stanford, this search has taken the structure of an academic interest in psychology; the mind and the self are crucial to her understanding of all else. Despite her love of all things curious and thought provoking, Judith also maintains a childlike and gleeful admiration of simpler happinesses. These happinesses come in forms such as ice cream, dancing elephants, piglets, helping others, hearty laughter, and good friends.
