With encouragement from my concurrent enrollment connections, I have become heavily involved on campus and was elected to be the current Associative Student Government President along with other leadership roles.

The teachers and office workers WANT to help you to achieve your goals. That's also the reason why I actually like to go to classes, because it's important for me to combine fun and learning.
