Alumnus Finds Adventure after Hendrix

CONWAY, Ark. (November 13, 2012) - After Braeden Hall graduated from Hendrix in May 2012 with a double major in psychology and religion and philosophy, he sold everything and headed off to the Czech Republic to work with World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms.

When his visa was about to expire, another opportunity presented itself. Less than 24 hours after returning to American soil, he was serving as a crew member aboard the Lady Washington, a replica of a cargo ship used in the mid-1700s.
