“The Quick Center regularly brings new
voices and perspectives to Fairfield
University, which influences me as a
student developing my own opinions and
ideas about current affairs. Moreover, the
Quick Center is meaningful to the campus
for its outreach into the arts, providing
students — like myself — a taste of culture
right in their backyard.”
