Daniel Geda will major in pre-med at Cornell #EthiopiansInDC

Outside of the classroom at St. Anselm’s Geda has been a member of the school’s track and soccer teams. He was also a member of Cultural Student Organization, which he said “is a club that tries to promote social, political, cultural, and racial dialogue and awareness on our school campus.”

Geda also took part in the Telluride Association Sophomore Seminar (TASS). The seminar invites less than 100 rising junior high school students each year to participate in a six-week college level course on black and ethnic studies topics. The program is designed to spur interest in the history, culture and politics of people of African descent. The program is held at Cornell University and the University of Michigan.
