Carlos Cohen is a junior studying political science. And he is this week’s gnotable gnomie, nominated not by this DPort employee but by members of the college community. According to his nominator, Carlos is “really just the GOAT. I really respect his commitment to serving our country as an officer in the United States Marine Corps and having him back on campus this semester (and having class with him) is really cool. I love our […]
Hudson Walberg ’19 is the first Gnotable Gnomie chosen not by this college employee, but by the people of Davenport college! He received not one, but two nominations, because of how important he is to the Davenport community! Hudson, in the words of Cody Clements ’19, is “the reigning DCC President and does so much for the D’port community. He’s just an all-around awesome guy.” He’s more than just a hard-working Dporter though, as Chaney […]
Tresa Joseph and Megan Rasmussen are Davenport seniors who have been beloved and active members of the Davenport community since their freshman year. Joseph is a political science major interested in criminal justice reform, and Rasmussen is a psychology major on the women’s volleyball team. They recently ended their tenure as joint presidents of Davenport College Council, but not before throwing one last Louisiana Soiree. The Louisiana Soiree was their well-loved invention, and the Mardi […]
This week’s gnotable gnomie is the Gnome itself, the fictional protagonist of the Davenport holiday play!! The Davenport holiday play is a hallowed tradition; it happens every year after the holiday dinner. This year, we will be putting on the second annual production of How The Gnome Stole Christmas, written by Kyle Deakins ’18 and Isabel Mendia ’18, and directed by Olivia Roth ’20. So come through the common room on December 9th at 7:30pm to engage […]
Hello – I’m Luke, and I’m a junior in Dport living in entryway H, which means I don’t have basement access for the third year in a row. I’m from Chicago, so it’ll be colder when I go home for break. After changing my mind 4 times, I finally settled on neuroscience as my major at the end of last year. Currently I work in Arielle Baskin-Sommers’ psych lab, which studies psychopathy and other externalizing […]
Hey, I’m Charlie, and I’m a sophomore in Davenport this year! As most of my friends can attest, living in the crosspiece (N31) this year has become a defining feature of my personality, for better or for worse. I adore greeting Rhonda and Shaff every time I leave my room, making the commute to the library in under a minute, having roof access (shh), and, probably most importantly, resurrecting almost-forgotten Davenport traditions (see you Friday…). […]
Hello there! I’m Lea, and I’m a senior in Davenport. Though I live off-campus in a coven with fellow gnome and theatrical powerhouse Cara Washington, there’s nowhere that makes me happier than the fair grounds of Davenport. When not updating my rankings of the best and worst hot chocolates in New Haven (give up, @ Blue State), I can be found hanging out with the good people of The Cottage (TM). Much of my time […]
Hi all! I’m Rose, a senior in Davenport. In the past, I spent 4 semesters organizing the committee to choose Davenport’s College Seminar. Now, I help coordinate the Mellon Forums for Davenport alongside previous Notable Gnomie Lilla Brody and noted olive oil enthusiast George Gemelas. You can also find me consuming cheesy foods and/or watching sporting events in the Dive. Elsewhere on campus, I attend occasional debates at the Yale Political Union and study Molecular […]
Hi! I’m Daniel Diaz-Vita and I’m a junior in Davenport! I’m majoring in Statistics and Data Science. I love Davenport so much that most of my extracurricular activities revolve around it. I’m an aid in the Head of College and I’m a Communication and Consent Educator (CCE). You can catch me answering phone calls and hanging out with Brenda and Shaff on Mondays, Wednesday, Fridays in the office or just restocking the condoms on Tuesday […]
Hi! I’m Lilla Brody! I’m a senior in Davenport. I’m a Theater Studies, Cognitive Science double major. I’m obsessed with my college and virtually never leave the confines of 248 York Street. All my favorite people at Yale are in Davenport. On campus, I do theatre (just down the block at 220 York, because I refuse to go any further), interview applicants at the admission office, and I have been a dive worker every semester […]
