  • Headshot of Yael Zelinger in front of a brick wall.
    “[ASL is] such a beautiful, expressive language, and I found it so satisfying to be able to express myself in sign language."
  • McDaniel College alumnus Jemar Daniel '07
    “I eventually went to law school — I liked the idea of creating policy and frameworks that help guide society — but I still had hopes that at some point I would get into the music industry. I thought it was a pipe dream.”
  • McDaniel College mascot with Randy Day '77
    “I never thought seriously about a career in anything other than agriculture. I just like growing things.”
