Interview with Judith Deutsch : Alumni Stories
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Judy Deutsch (AB Human Biology, 1982) shares her experiences adjusting to Stanford as an international student who grew up in Mexico. She explains her appreciation for the Human Biology (HumBio) major and the flexibility it afforded her to explore her interests. Deutsch reflects on the culture shock she experienced around sex and drugs in US culture, interactions with Stanford’s LGBTQ community, and the university’s culture. She discusses overcoming early academic challenges after failing one of her first core classes, but later went on to earn her PhD in pathokinesiology at NYU. Deutsch also shares about her time living in Hammarskjold House, her involvement in the Stanford Workshop on Political and Social Issues (SWOPSI) co-teaching a course on feminist literature, and her recreational pastimes such as swimming in Lake Lagunita and playing sports with her friends.
