What makes a good society?” Now there’s a question that many members of the Swarthmore family tackle often. On March 31, 12 speakers addressed the topic at the first TEDxSwarthmore event. One of them was Mary Jean Chan ’12 (kneeling, fourth from left). A political science honors major and English literature minor from Hong Kong, Chan bested four other students in the TEDxSwarthmore Student Challenge to earn a spot on the roster of speakers. Her topic was “A Tapestry of Narratives: Conversations through Poetry.” For more on TEDxSwarthmore, go to tedxswarthmore.com
