The Art of Not Knowing Yet
|
“You know, there is actually an art form to being curious. There is an art form to not knowing yet. And I have to remind myself [of that] every day.”
That’s what Grace Youn ’13 concluded near the end of a visit to campus in February, after she had given two master classes to students and community members as well as the Spring 2026 Susan Resneck Pierce Lecture in Public Affairs and the Arts titled “The Art of Not Knowing Yet.”
Youn, who grew up in University Place, Wash., and earned her Bachelor of Music degree in performance, is a Los Angeles–based multi-instrumentalist, arranger, and producer. She started sharing her own arrangements on YouTube in 2011 and recently traveled as a violinist, guitarist, arranger, and vocalist with the Irish singer and musician Hozier during his Unreal Unearth Tour. Youn also serves on the School of Music Advisory Board, contributing to the conversation of what a career as a musician can look like.
During the Pierce Lecture, Youn explored what she called “the curiosity loop” — endlessly pursuing side quests and defining your own path, instead of the outcomes that society deems necessary to achieve success. The next day, she sat down with our Arches team to expand on that conversation, discuss her life as a musician, and more.

The Logger Women's Crew team did exceptionally well at the NCAA Division III Championships, with the 1V8+ and 2V8+ boats winning the Petite Title. The Loggers finished seventh overall, showing they can keep up with the fastest teams in the nation.
"We were the youngest crew at the regatta and learned a ton of lessons that will serve the rowers well as we continue to grow as individuals, boats, a team, and a program in the pursuit of being the best we can be, in and out of the racing shell," said Head Coach David Hammond.
