My Recent Experience

This week has been a very intense, crazy and long. It is hard to believe that this Monday really was a Monday. Lets back up a little bit first. About 3 weeks ago we had "How Ya Doin" interviews in ambassadors. I had given the thought of becoming the president of ambassadors previously to that. Quite a few other Ambassadors also told me that they thought I would be a good PA president. So I said in the interview that I would be willing to be put on the ballot to lead this great organization. I was not selected, but I knew that my friend Bailey who was selected would be a great leader as well, and I am almost positive that she could do a better job then me too. She asked me to be on the executive counsel with her. I am so excited that I am going to have the opportunity to give back to this wonderful organization that has really changed my life.

of the PA's this year

Going along with that, this week we had people from COPLAC (Council of Public Liberal Arts Colleges) come to campus. SUU is working on becoming a member of this organization. It started out in the morning with a tour by a great ambassador, Megan. The lady that was here really enjoyed the campus and what was explained to her. There was a panel of different students that came to talk with the lady from COPLAC. Now I always knew I liked SUU and what is going on here. It wasn't until I was being asked about the programs here that I truly understood that I LOVE SOUTHERN UTAH UNIVERSITY!!! I did not realize all of the many different things that are offered.
Example: My technical writing professor realized that SUU does not have a new student manual. So for our final project she wanted us to create a new student manual. She has talked with many people here, and during our final we are having many different leaders here at the school judge it. The winning teams manual is going to be selected to be sent to new students. Students are being able to create a project with complete sponsorship of the school. Can you get that experience at BYU, UofU, Utah State, UNLV, UCLA? I highly doubt it.

My time here at SUU is getting me excited for what is to come in my future. SUU truly is preparing me for my future. I am so happy to be able to be apart of the Thunderbird Nation.
