Abbeygale Anderson has dedicated her time to being a leader in various communities. She served as the president of Dartmouth’s chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Anderson’s involvement in the NAACP allowed her to learn about advocacy while receiving the support she needed to succeed during her time on campus. Wanting to make other campus organizations more inclusive, she became the chair of the Diversity and Inclusion Committee of student government and a member of the Council on Student Organizations. Aligning her professional and social interests, Anderson was an associate for Smart Women’s Security and studied at the London School of Economics and Political Science.
