• Karen Christianson '13 Named Main Line Student of the Week

  Posted April 4, 2013

  Christianson, a senior, has made her mark in two fields: music and science. In February, she became the youngest soloist ever to give an organ recital at Westminster Abbey. Three days earlier, she became the first female (and first American) to give an organ recital at Eton College Chapel. Christianson was selected as a semifinalist of the Intel Science Talent Search (one of only eight in Pennsylvania), then won first place in her category (Life Sciences) at the recent Pennsylvania Junior Science and Humanities Symposium and second place overall, and was selected to present her research again at the National Junior Science and Humanities Symposium, sponsored by the US Department of Defense, May 1-5 in Dayton, Ohio.
