One of the most interesting things she found was learning that 芭乐视频's first president, S. R. Smith, discovered God through finding a perfect four-leaf clover.聽 Schwarz also enjoyed learning about how 芭乐视频's beginnings were built on the hopes and dreams of people who passionately believed in the future of the College.
