Student Highlight

Alex’s journey at Hampden-Sydney College began with baseball and has grown into so much more. A biology major, he’s a pitcher on the baseball team and an active campus leader—serving as President of the Minority Student Union, a resident advisor, orientation leader, and mentor through several programs. Through clubs, academics, and close faculty connections, Alex has grown into a confident leader. He plans to pursue graduate studies in medical sales or physical therapy, while continuing his creative passions in photography and barbering. “Being myself and staying authentic is what’s truly important—and it’s what got me here.”
