Summary: Danny Vogwill arrived at the University of Illinois in fall 2018, coming from an educationally minded family in Chicago. They made a last minute switch to Allen Hall, a decision which paid off – Danny eventually became an Allen RA, was deeply involved in Unit One activities, and even created, hosted, and filmed five (!) seasons of Allen Hall Big Brother. Remaining a tireless advocate for their residents even through the coronavirus pandemic, they graduated with an MCB degree in 2022. In this interview, they discuss their early life, path to college and U of I, Allen Hall and Unit One, the RA job, and navigating college before and during COVID-19.
