40 Under 40
In this third edition of Arcadia’s 40 under 40, we highlight a sampling of the talented and successful alumni who have built upon the global mindset, social impact, and hands-on opportunities they developed at Arcadia.
Seeing Double
Jada and James Northern of Clifton Heights, Pa., are first-year students at Arcadia—twins whose approaches to choosing a college could not have been more different. James applied to 20 different schools, including several historically Black colleges and universities, and was accepted to 18 of them. Jada applied to two schools and was accepted to both. However, their final decision turned out to be the same: attend Arcadia and be part of the five sets of twins to join the Class of 2029.
Hitting the Mats
The stage is set for Arcadia men’s and women’s wrestling as their inaugural seasons of competition get underway. Talented student-athletes fill the rosters, a state-of-the-art facility is ready for action, and stiff competition is scheduled. All that is left is to put their preparation to the test.
