Chapter Text
Hanover College.
The second Aaron Burr stepped onto campus, he knew it was where he was going to make his mark. Hanover College was a sprawling college campus near Albany, New York. It had handsome historic buildings, lush green lawns, towering oak trees, and a rich background in the liberal arts. That was, at least, what the brochure said. The actual campus wasn’t quite the same as the subtly brightened and altered photographs in the brochures and on the school website, but Aaron Burr was from New Jersey.
The campus was a literal breath of fresh air.
Yes, Hanover College. Burr knew that he was going to thrive there. He had excelled in high school - graduating second in his class - and had submitted an impressive application. Although, he had dabbled in multiple extracurricular activities without finding one that suited him.
He was going into the first year of college undecided. After all, he told himself, most college students did that. Most college students didn’t know what they wanted until their second or third year at school. He didn’t want to commit to a major and then discover that it wasn’t something he wanted to pursue. Nobody really knew exactly what they were going to do right when they got into college.
At least, Burr thought that until he met his roommate.
