Evan Hamilton ’26

Hello there! I came to Oberlin from a suburb of beautiful Portland, Oregon. I found a second home in Oberlin during my first year, and have now continued to enjoy my experience into my current, third academic year. I'm a double major in creative writing and biology, with a minor in Spanish (you may find me eating at El Rincón Latino, the Spanish Lunch Corner, in Stevenson Dining Hall!).

Outside of academics, I serve as a Resident Assistant, a Peer Advising Leader, and a campus tour guide. I'm currently working on my first novel and so far have written around 100,000 words. I’m the co-designer of the role-playing game Alterra: Age of Exploration, and enjoy playing tabletop and Nintendo games in my spare time.

My room is a single on the first floor of East dorm, but if I'm not there, you'll otherwise most often find me studying in the Terrell Library's fourth floor, or the science atrium. Feel free to say hi if you see me around campus, as I'd love to talk and answer questions about Oberlin.
