Naseem Moussavian '19 shares: “I am forever indebted to the brilliance of Professor Brian Braman and am making a gift to BC in his honor this #GivingTuesday. His unparalleled wisdom, humility, and leadership cultivated the Perspectives community. It is through this community, and his mentorship, that I discovered my intellectual love of philosophy. Professor Braman's steadfast commitment to his students is inspiring. I am genuinely proud and grateful to have been gifted with his presence in my life.”

When you think back on your experience at BC, who comes to mind? Who encouraged, mentored, and inspired you—a professor, an advisor, a classmate?
