Points of Departure: “You Get to Be Whoever You Want to Be.”

“Ace” Jenkins (CAS’08)

By Alan Wong

What’s it like to move on after four years at Boston University? What’s over? What’s not? What, besides the construction on the Kenmore Square T stop, will go on forever? BU Today asked graduates of the Class of 2008 to talk about what they brought, what they are taking away, and what they will always carry with them.

Back home in North Carolina, he was known as Stephen, but among friends at BU, Timothy Stephen Jenkins (CAS’08) goes by Ace. That’s one of the nice things about being here, says Jenkins — it’s the kind of place where you get to be whoever you want to be.

Check back tomorrow to watch more seniors reflect on their time at BU. Click here to watch Points of Departure: "Where Does the Love Begin?"
