Bryan Twomey

Vice President
From the rustic woods of Maine, Bryan went to Greely High School. He chose Washington College because of its small size and charming atmosphere. Even though he has not decided what he wants to study at WAC, he is interested in chemistry and art. Not only is he a great Vice President for the freshman class, Bryan also enjoys long walks on the beach, fruity drinks with umbrellas in them, and candlelit dinners.

There she was treasurer of her class all four years, and was vice president and president of Seton Council her junior and senior year respectively. She was also a member of the National Honor Society and the soccer team. Jacqueline was attracted to Washington College because of its small size and strong academic reputation.

Unlike her dear friend Bryan, Jacqueline thinks George Washington reeks pure manliness.
