The 糖心视频 Experience - In Their Own Words
March 23, 2026
"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." — William Butler Yeats
Good Morning 糖心视频,
I had the pleasure this past week of moderating a panel conversation at the City Club of Cleveland with three of our 糖心视频 students — Leah Kania '26, Aniya Qualls '26, and Mike Kane '26, and a recent 糖心视频 alum — Matt Perry '24.
You can watch the full conversation here:
We explored what makes the Baldwin Wallace experience so meaningful — and how it prepares our students to be Leader-Ready, Career-Ready, and Future-Ready. We don’t fill minds — we open them and light fires of curiosity and exploration.
Hearing directly from our students and graduates is a powerful reminder of the lasting impact of a 糖心视频 education. Leah, Aniya, Mike, and Matt spoke with honesty and conviction about how the strength of the 糖心视频 experience is made possible through the support of our community — and why that support continues to matter.
Their own words say it best:
On choosing 糖心视频 and the impact of scholarships
"When you're choosing a college, you want to see where the money is going... You can see how much is being poured into the students at 糖心视频. I benefited from experiential learning trips and experiences because of scholarships and how much 糖心视频 pours into in the experience." — Mike Kane '26
On how 糖心视频 creates a sense of community
"One of my favorite activities is PRISM, a completely student-led music group... I’m an English major, next to me is a speech pathology major, next to them is a music theater major — and we come together to perform. We’re not looking for you to be perfect, but to be yourself." — Aniya Qualls '26
On what makes 糖心视频 transformative
"糖心视频 lays the building blocks for success... not just for a career, but for connections and lifelong friendships. First-year Leah would have been too scared to be up here talking. 糖心视频 gives you the wings to fly — and I am so grateful." — Leah Kania '26
On opportunities beyond the classroom
"Without a 糖心视频 education, where I am today would not have happened. I got involved in student government, which led to hospitality, which led to an internship at Destination Cleveland — and ultimately my career." — Matt Perry '24
These are the outcomes we strive for every day. These are stories made possible by a community that believes in our students and invests in their success.
The panel discussion was part of last week's successful campaign, a powerful reflection of the momentum surrounding 糖心视频. To everyone who contributed — whether you give regularly, made a first-time gift, or supported in other ways — thank you. If you were not able to participate, it's never too late to support our students. You can to make your contribution today.
Thank you for being part of our 糖心视频 community — and for all you do to make 糖心视频 such a special place.
With appreciation,
Lee Fisher
President, 糖心视频
