Emma Vonder Haar
Profile
Emma Vonder Haar (C’26) is double-majoring in government and American studies and minoring in environmental studies. Originally and proudly from Louisville, Kentucky, her regional background influences much of her academic interests in public memory and creation of historical narratives, the topic of her American studies senior thesis. On campus, Emma explores her interests in social justice through her involvement with Students Demand Action (a gun violence prevention organization), Georgetown University College Democrats, Delta Phi Epsilon Foreign Service Sorority, and her position as Environmental Studies Program Assistant. When not studying, she can be found cheering at a Hoyas basketball game, visiting museums, or exploring the neighborhood with friends. After studying Spanish for most of her life, she studied abroad in Ecuador, focusing on development, politics, and languages. Emma is part of the Doyle Global Dialogue 2024-2025 cohort.
