Whitman College students tell their stories—about their unique experiences in choosing Whitman and being part of the Whitman community and what they love most. This is Alistair’s story.

Alistair Ganholm, a Psychology major from Seattle, brings the Renaissance to life at Whitman College as Co-President of the Renaissance Fair Planning Committee. From organizing fantasy-themed events like boffing tournaments and winter balls to designing sets for Shakespearean plays, Alistair embodies the lively spirit and inclusive community that defines Whitman's vibrant campus culture.

The “Our Whitman, My Story” podcast is a collaboration between the Whitman College Office of Communication and author and podcaster John Moe ’90. To meet more of our talented students follow Whitman on social media.
