Social media spotlight: Abigail Bennett

Hometown: Oxford, Maine

I’m fascinated by the increasing complexity of the stock market and the power concentrated in the hands of corporate owners. I’m a senior studying financial economics; my Honors thesis is on the difference in performance between passively and actively owned companies. I love being co-president of UMaine’s student-run investment club (SPIFFY) and secretary of the College Republican National Committee, which have positively shaped my college experience and life. I blog about personal finance, and hike, ski, run and hang out with my amazing family. The No. 1 reason I love UMaine: the incredible network we’ll be part of for the rest of our lives.
