She can’t wait to make more memories with her best friends.
Bram Baumstein

He loves being in the group for so many reasons, but mostly because of his love for the syllable “Dow,” as demonstrated in so many UAR classics. Aside from singing Bass in the group, Bram’s favorite hobbies include singing, singing (he honestly sings too much), and long romantic walks on the beach. If for some reason you feel so inclined as to send him a gift, he requests that it be some type of cheese.

He sings both Bass and Baritone in the group, or as he likes to call it, “bassitone.” Nick partakes in Ram Squad where he gets the WCU society amped up for sports events and the Student Activities Council, where he helps with events around campus. He is very excited for the ICCAs and other performances throughout the year.
