Meanwhile, Ben Roodman has postponed his freshman year at Haverford to work on organic farms internationally through WWOOF. Lou McDonough will be spending a gap year in Portugal before starting at Middlebury the following year and that ZhenHua Pavetti will be going to Spain before attending James Madison University.
