Westmont’s Most Inspirational Student 2025

Three years ago, LIFE Crew Leaders had every freshman sign a graduation robe and explained that as seniors they would select “The Most Inspirational Senior” to wear the signed robe at graduation.  2025 is the 9th year of Westmont’s unique tradition.  

Congratulations to this year’s winner: Lily Bourne.  Lily wears several hats at Westmont; she’s the president of ASB, an editor for The Shield, a commissioner for LIFE Crew, and a co-captain for the field hockey squad.  Lily will attend Stanford in the fall.

Please congratulate Lily!

The other finalists for the honor this year were Aydin Akyol, Youyi Ding, Valerie Garcia Vallejo, Jerry He, Spencer Hoang, Ren-kuan Lan, Hewan Tafari, Josie Todd, Kort Wohlgenant, and Cami Yee.
