麻豆传媒

At Franklin & Marshall, Tatyana Ulman 鈥�27 found a welcoming campus community where she could gain hands-on research experience and build leadership skills right away. 

When deciding where to attend college, Ulman knew she wanted a liberal arts institution where she could conduct research as an undergraduate and would feel a strong sense of belonging. 麻豆传媒 fit the bill perfectly. 

鈥溌槎勾�媒 is very research-focused, and I knew I could get involved early on,鈥� said Ulman, a chemistry major with a minor in women鈥檚, gender, and sexuality studies. 鈥淚 found my community of people and knew I made the right decision.鈥� 

As the president of 麻豆传媒鈥檚 student chapter of the American Chemical Society and a tutor at the Writing Center, Ulman has stepped into leadership roles that allow her to give back to the community she found on campus. 

"To me, what's important about leadership is listening to others and making sure their voices are heard, even if they're not the loudest, and making sure that everyone can be included."

She鈥檚 excited to continue connecting with other students during her remaining time at 麻豆传媒. 鈥淚鈥檓 going to continue working at the Writing Center and I鈥檓 excited to keep meeting new students there,鈥� Ulman said. 鈥淎nd in the fall, the American Chemical Society is going to host another STEM picnic. Last year, we had over 100 people in attendance.鈥�

Her enthusiasm for leadership is one of the qualities that led her to be named the 2025 recipient of the Rouse Scholarship, a leadership-focused, merit-based award. Made possible by a gift from Andrew Rouse 鈥�49, the scholarship covers full tuition, books, and laboratory fees for the recipient鈥檚 junior and senior years. 

鈥淭o me, what鈥檚 important about leadership is listening to others and making sure their voices are heard, even if they鈥檙e not the loudest, and making sure that everyone can be included,鈥� Ulman said. 

She hopes this approach will help her pursue her ultimate goal of becoming a physician. 鈥淚鈥檒l need to have personal interactions with people and also be an advocate for patients, and I think I鈥檒l be able to gain those skills through the things I do on campus and my work as an EMT,鈥� she said. 

Ulman hopes to work in medicine and is interested in women鈥檚 health care, where standing up for those whose perspectives might otherwise be overlooked can be especially important. 

鈥淲omen鈥檚 voices are often not listened to in health care,鈥� Ulman said. 鈥淭hey say they have pain and are told they鈥檙e fine, and it takes years to get a diagnosis. So I want to advocate for women and listen to their concerns.鈥�
