What's up people? I'm considering applying to Brown University, and just out of curiosity, I wanted to ask if any of y'all know some famous graduates from there? Like, who are the big names that went to Brown? Cheers!
Hey there! It's always interesting to see who has come out of a particular university. Brown University has had quite a few notable alumni across various fields. Here are some big names you might recognize:
1. Emma Watson - Actress, famously known for playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter series, graduated with a degree in English literature.
2. John F. Kennedy Jr. - Son of President John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, graduated with a degree in history.
3. Todd Haynes - Acclaimed film director, screenwriter, and producer, known for films like "Far from Heaven" and "Carol."
4. Jeffrey Eugenides - Pulitzer Prize-winning author of novels like "The Virgin Suicides" and "Middlesex."
5. Janet Yellen - Former Chair of the Federal Reserve and current U.S. Secretary of the Treasury.
Of course, there are many other accomplished Brown alumni, but these are just a few examples to give you an idea. Remember, though, that while it's fascinating to see well-known graduates, what matters most is whether the university is a good fit for you academically and personally. So be sure to research Brown's programs, campus culture, and other aspects to ensure it aligns with your goals and interests. Good luck!
