ALO Newsletter
Twenty-Third Edition: February 6, 2017

Featured Member: Ashley Jutras '20

Hey everyone! My name is Ashley Jutras and I am a current first-year from a small town in Maine. For much of my childhood, I had numerous close friends who were Muslim, and as a result, my interest in Middle Eastern culture and religion sparked at a young age. Currently, I am a double major in Human Services and Public Health, with a minor in Middle Eastern Studies. I hope to spend a semester abroad in Jordan within the next couple of years and I look forward to all I will learn from that experience. Long-term, I am looking towards a career path in refugee resettlement. Overall, I'm excited to continue learning more about Islam, strengthen my Arabic skills, and meet people through ALO and studying abroad!
