Thanks for that! Looks like a very prestigious school. Massive congrats to Stella! They all must be so proud of her. When I first read "liberal arts college" I thought it was a school centered around arts (like acting, journalism...). As I live in Europe, I don't know much about the American school system, I know much more about the Australian school system at this point. So then I read there are actually 5 major divisions on this school, does anybody know what she studied there?

I remember reading Art History and Photography, somewhere in one of Simon's interview… but not 100% sure.

She studied philosophy (I don´t know if there was more as I have no idea about the American college system)

It's clearly something that she's very passionate about because Simon said in an interview in 2006 that she's interested in different religions.

Thanks Ruuger for the link. Fascinating. I am certain that Stella and her father have had many long chats about beliefs. He has made reference to his intentional lapse in Catholic beliefs. It would be fun to hear them talk about faith and irrational thinking.

Thanks from me too, Ruuger. The name of Stella's thesis and Simon's interview do show a link between the two. I would have wanted to read the thesis (even if I don't understand it). Very intelligent family...

I didn't know her college was Reed. I was wondering what the instagram was referring to.
