Collin Sawyer '21, Men's Basketball

GET TO KNOW COLLIN

Hometown: New London, Connecticut

MA/Major/Minors: International Finance and Economics/Sociology/Business & Economics

Favorite part of competing for Brandeis: The fan support we have received the last couple years.

Favorite athletic moment: My buzzer beater at Bates because not only was it my first, but both my parents made the trip up and were sitting in the bleacher right next to the wing I shot from. 

Favorite class: Leading in the Era of Diversity with professor Sava Berhané (IBS) because the course challenges you to do a lot of self-reflection. You learn a lot about yourself and others if you take it seriously.

The thing that attracted me most to Brandeis: Coach Tabb..... that guy could talk a cat off a fish truck.

Favorite place on campus outside of Gosman: The Stein.

Thing I'll miss most about Brandeis: The day-to-day clownery with my teammates.

Something unexpected I learned: Grades, for most classes, are decided by 3 assessments.

After I graduate, I plan to: Take a gap year and then go to law school!

Favorite TV Show: Rick and Morty.

Favorite Song: No Woman, No Cry by Bob Marley.

Favorite Book: The Lorax by Dr. Seuss.

Favorite pro team: The Lakers because of Lebron James.

Most memorable sports moment: The Block by Lebron James in the 2016 NBA Finals.

Favorite Quote: "Until the philosophy which hold one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned - everywhere is war" - Bob Marley
