Senior Spotlight: Ellen Levine1)If you could take the place of a character in a novel, who would you be and why?I would be Ellen Olenska from �e Age of Innocence. She’s so un-conventional and confuses everyone around her, plus I wouldn’t even have to change my name.2)What is the single best English class you’ve taken at Car-leton and why?My favorite English class so far has been studying theater in Lon-don. Pretty much a once in a lifetime opportunity to see so much theater for free and then be able to discuss it with very enthusiastic classmates!3) Tell us something that most of the other English majors

don’t know about you.When I was younger, my favorite game was to crawl around and pretend to be a dog named Tomato.4)Which book would you be okay never reading again?I would be totally �ne with never reading Frankenstein again. I’m probably missing the genius in the work, but I thought the writing was stilted and the characters were unlikeable. Let’s just say that I will not be naming my son Victor.5) Six words describing your experience as a Carleton English major:Please don’t ask about my future! 6) What is your best memory of the London program?My best memory of the London program is obviously seeing Romeo and Juliet in Stratford and then catching a glimpse of the Queen’s purple hat the next day. I also have some lovely memories of eating Digestives in the Pickwick kitchen.

1)If you could take the place of a character in a novel, who would you be and why?Everyone knows that I’m a hopeless Romantic so I’d be Jane from Jane Eyre. Any Mr. Rochesters out there?2)What is the single best English class you’ve taken at Carleton and why? I am choosing to ignore the word ‘single’. EVERYTHING on the London program (i.e. Regency London and London Theatre), British Romantic Poets and Shakespeare.3) Tell us something that most of the other English majors don’t know about you.I was my school’s Junior Sports Girl for 1999. And no, it never happened again.4)Which book would you be okay never reading again?

Sense and Sensibility. It’s my least favourite Austen novel and that’s the one that I’ve always had assigned. Twice.5) Six words describing your experience as a Carleton English major:John, Keats, Keats, John, John, Keats6) Favorite Professor in terms of hairstyle?Connie Walker or Tim Raylor

Oh, no no no, it was too cold always

(Still the dead one lay moaning)

I was much too far out all my life

And not waving but drowning.
