James Pasaribu '22, psychology major, is one of Wilson's most active students. He is an RA, a member of the Nerd Crew, competes on the esports team, and has joined most of the college service trips.

Wilson’s road to adding an esports team began with Dean Williams asking undergraduate James Pasaribu, the vice president of the Wilson College Government Association, to research the costs and challenges of setting up an esports program. As an esports fan and player, he was an enthusiastic advocate and wrote a proposal that was accepted by the College leadership.

James shares why he feels Wilson College is the right fit for him. "At any larger university, you are only one of many, a mere statistic. At Wilson, you are treated as a person with ideas and opportunities. If you have an idea and talk to the right people, they will look you in the eye, smile, and say, "Why not?"
