Kathleen Dean is a recent graduate of St. Dominic Academy and plans on attending St. Michael’s College to major in English and History. Girl Scouts has provided her with many opportunities to gain perspective and to unite in a common purpose. One of the biggest challenges that she sees facing girls and women today is the preconceived notion of what it means to be a girl and gender discrimination. Kathleen plans to fight for equality in athletics and plans to coach younger players in softball in the future.
