Title
Jackson, Noël (1989)
Description
Noël Jackson grew up in Geneva, Illinois, and graduated from Lewis and Clark College with a Bachelor’s degree in International Affairs in 1989. Jackson was on the swim team all four years at Lewis and Clark, and worked at the Rusty Nail cafe, as an RA, and as the wedding coordinator at the chapel. In 1987, during her sophomore year, Jackson went on a Spring semester overseas trip to the USSR, which is the topic of this interview. The trip was a cultural exchange program and saw Jackson’s group take language courses, interact with Russian students, and visit museums, monuments, and other heritage sites. The trip greatly affected Jackson’s worldview and spurred a continuing interest in Russian culture, politics, and history; this will be elaborated further in the interview. Today, Jackson lives in Portland with her husband–who is also an alum of Lewis and Clark College–and works as a realtor.
