Making Their Mark<\/strong><\/a> is a Newscenter series of profiles celebrating members of Rochester\u2019s graduating class of 2019.<\/em><\/h4>\n
\n

Three questions
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Favorite class?<\/strong> \u201cProgram of Dance and Movement. You didn\u2019t have to be a dancer, per se. We worked on developing movement activities that anyone could do, and some visual art as well. Then, we went into five local high schools and worked with students.\u201d<\/p>\n

Favorite tradition?<\/strong> \u201cEastman\u2019s Holiday Sing. It\u2019s the last Friday of classes in December before final exams. Student groups perform a short song in a concert in Lowry Hall with a big Christmas tree.\u201d<\/p>\n

Favorite spot on campus?<\/strong> \u201cAny nook I find that is sunny and quiet!\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hannah Dick \u201919, \u201919E knew she wanted to pursue a college degree in music. But that wasn\u2019t all.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a very curious person,\u201d she says, noting that she wanted to explore other academic pursuits in addition to music.<\/p>\n

She found the best of both worlds at the College, where she is a brain and cognitive sciences major,<\/a> and the Eastman School of Music,<\/a> where she is a percussion major.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve become great friends with the Red Line bus that runs between Eastman and the River Campus,\u201d she says. \u201cI almost have the schedule memorized.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dick grew up in Schenectady, New York, surrounded by music. Her dad filled the house with classical songs, and all five children played an instrument. Hannah\u2019s sister, Erin Dick Over \u201911, taught her piano, but she grew to love percussion because of the variety of instruments she could play.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wanted a drum set,\u201d she says, \u201cbut the house could only hold so many instruments. I already had a marimba, snare drum, and two timpani.\u201d<\/p>\n

She has filled many roles during her time in Rochester: four-year member of Eastman\u2019s InterVarsity Christian Fellowship (with a leadership role the past three years), resident advisor, member of musical ensembles, and captain of an intramural ultimate Frisbee team with fellow Eastman students. Dick also was cochair of the Student Advisory Committee for the University\u2019s presidential search.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat was quite an honor,\u201d she says, \u201cand I\u2019m thrilled with the selection [of University of Wisconsin provost Sarah Mangelsdorf].\u201d<\/p>\n

Dick received a Fulbright US Student Grant,<\/a> sponsored by the State Department, and leaves for Sweden in August to study improvisation and performance and pedagogy, with the goal of teaching and performing in the community one day. While based in the city of \u00d6rebro, she will be directing a high school percussion ensemble.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve known since I was in high school that I wanted to use music to help people,\u201d she says. \u201cI considered music therapy, and I definitely envision myself being involved with music in the community.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
