Executive board

Dominik is a rising junior in the glorious Kirkland House, the cradle of all awesomeness, as well as of Facebook. A probable Economics and Computer Science concentrator, he seems to enjoy dealing with everything international or money-related – the reason he serves as Treasurer for both Woodbridge and the International Relations Council. Originally from Warsaw, Poland, he is a keen world traveler and a foreign language enthusiast – feel free to speak to him in Polish, French, English, Russian or Chinese. Dominic is a huge fan of Formula 1, Chelsea London, U2 and Oscar Wilde’s writing, so definitely let him know if any of the above perturbs the rhythm of your heart too. Well, even if it’s not the case, do let him know anyway because his heart is certainly open to new sources of perturbation. Dominique is absolutely thrilled at the prospect of experiencing FIP’s awesomeness again this year, and he thinks you should start getting excited too!
On a final note, you might have noticed that Dominik’s name leaves room for a lot of creativity, so give it a shot and try to pronounce it the right way when you meet him.

Or figured that the best way to really introduce himself is to introduce to you one of the greatest questions ever invented for making smalltalk: "Where are you from?" Or's problem is that his has no one answer really. Usually his answer is "Israel... via Ecuador... and Colombia kinda?". And the follow-up question to that is another great one: "Where is home to you?" Let him lead you through what goes in his mind. First he thinks, "Oh boy here we go again." Then he wonders what the person means by home and begins to think: well, on the one hand, his parents live in Spain, so that's a physical home. But all of his best friends (besides his great ones here at Harvard) are from Ecuador, where he graduated, so that's a home. And when he "goes home for the summer", he goes to Israel to visit his extended family. You decide.



Besides spending his time pondering his origins, he is now the Vice-President of Woodbridge having served twice as the Director of International Awareness and External Outreach in Woodbridge. He also likes to play the guitar - classical and electric - dance salsa, and more, but for that you're gonna have to actually get to know him. He's a rising Super-senior (for 9th and 10th semesters) in the great Adams House (unlike everyone else's plugs for their Houses, Adams being the greatest is just a fact :D). He is getting a B.Sc. in Biomedical Engineering, secondary-ing in Linguistics, and getting a citation in Portuguese, so you can really ask me about anything (except Ec or Gov... we have enough of those to go around :P).



Let him close with one last comment: Yes, his name really is Or, like the conjunction. In fact, his name is a conjunction in two languages: English (which you should know) and Hindi/Urdu (in which it means 'and'). Go figure.

Aleksandar is a sophomore hailing from the little-big country of Macedonia. At Harvard, he has found the warmth of home in the beautiful Pforzheimer House, the North Pole of Harvard. He is concentrating in Social Studies, focusing on multiculturalism and freedom of religion, or the lack thereof, in contemporary European society. He is also pursuing a Language Citation in French, which he plans to use in fulfilling one of his main goals in life: reading all of Proust in the original French. If he is not found dazed and confused in the Harvard madhouse, he is likely to be found in one of the many Cambridge coffeehouses, with a book in the one hand and a coffee cup in the other. One of the few representatives of his small country in this part of the world, he feels that the Woodbridge International Society is his big happy family.
