Responses have been edited for length and clarity.

Zoë Katz (’26): My mom and I have a talking stick that we pass around the table after we finish dinner and everyone shares what they’re thankful for. It’s a piece of driftwood that we’ve wrapped ribbons around and tied crystals to *laughs*.

Aaron Crain (’28): Usually I go back east to my family and my uncle cooks a really big brisket. We watch the football games while eating dinner and he [my uncle] has a big tent and projects the football games on the screen. We’re always arguing about football the whole time and it’s really fun.

Sophia Milner (’29): I go to Maryland and I see my grandparents and cousins and we eat food!

Leo Pincus (’30): I usually go to my grandma’s house in Utah. All my cousins and aunts and family come and we have Thanksgiving.
