Choir Bee of the Week: Ismet Üner '16

This week, our Choir Bee of the Week, Ismet Üner, was a veritable star. At the dinner to launch Wellesley College's 500 million dollar campaign, Ismet was our gorgeous soloist for our Barry Manilow number, "One Voice." Despite the hundreds of eyes watching her, she performed beautifully, captivating everyone.
