Meet English Major Victoria Rackley ’21

Hometown: Boulder, Colorado

Majors: English & Communication

Highlights of your time at Wake: My favorite moments at Wake Forest have been the ones spent building relationships and memories that I’ll always cherish. I’ll never forget drinking coffee with friends in the Tribble courtyard and building muscle by carrying around the Norton anthologies.

Post-grad plans: I plan on attending law school after graduation.

Why you majored in English: I have always felt that studying English would be great preparation for law school with the demands that the major places on critical thinking and comprehension, but also I think that there is a lot to be said for the general value of learning how to start and finish projects while building up your writing tool box. Majoring in English has exceeded all of my expectations.
