My fellow tigers, today I officially announce my candidacy for Freshman Class Senator. I come before you all today, humbled by all that God has blessed me with. I am a first generation college student, I come from a single parent household and I understand how hard it was for some of us to reach this far. Although this class has not been with each other for an extended period of time, I have been able to shake some your hands, hear some of your stories, and understand how we could improve this school together. On today I think back on the rich history of Texas Southern University. I think about all that this institution and its student have had to endure over time. I think about the marches and sit in’s on the tiger walk, I think about the false stigmas that have been latched upon any student who has attended this institution, I think about the Jordans and Leland's who never gave up in the face of fear, who never lost hope …show more content…
A lot of issues to be addressed. However, I have put together a four-point plan that will begin to move us in the direction of progress. First, let us reduce the cost of textbooks. Because no student who has made it this far should bear the uncertainty of whether or not they will have enough to get a textbook and have their education potentially shut down due to rising textbook cost. Second, let us establish fiscal responsibility. As your Senator, I will guarantee that your money is spent wisely on programs that will benefit each and every one of you. Third, let us work toward bringing new career internship opportunities for all of you here on campus. These opportunities will be able to provide you all with job experience within an area you would like to pursue in the future. And finally, let us bring more inclusiveness to the Class of 2020. As your Senator, I will host Freshman town halls every month to truly understand the issues you all face here on a daily basis. But, also to hear your voices and
As former high school Student Government President I know that more than any other branch in SGA, the Senate’s job is to listen to the voices of students and find new ways to respond to their needs, concerns and aspirations. As Senator I will find and develop multiple avenues for connecting with students, sparking and collecting their ideas, and supporting them in their own projects to improve the Stetson experience.
As a diverse student, in a very low income community I have always been known to standing up for others, as well as for myself. Having this natural drive i found myself taking a huge role in our high school Beta Club. As a natural leader, I was challenged with the opportunity to represent our high school’s Beta Club Chapter while running for North Carolina Beta Secretary. Although I felt experienced as a leader, I was really nervous to get up in front of all of North Carolina and give a speech at the Beta Club convention. Although I was nervous, I opened my mouth, and the words just began to come out. My fears went away, and I addressed everyone on topics of educational improvements and opportunities for all students to succeed. I used this
Good morning class of 2019. I am Tori Cichelero, and I am running for Freshman Class President. As a president, my job would be to stabilize each and every single one of us, because we are new to the community of Ursuline Academy. I will make sure we are all involved, so we all get to be connected into the school. In order to be involved, we all have to take risk and try new things. Trying new things can be scary, but it can be so much better when you have a leader to guide you. My guidance can make us freshman the best possible class by using our intelligence, hard-work, responsibility, and kindness. When I think of Ursuline Academy, I think of how great our class is. Each classmate in front of me right now means so much to me. Your grades,
“What! No! Why!?” Without a doubt, these words have been exalted by many candidates during the competitive transfer process at UW-Madison. Although I was denied transfer admission, I cannot but respect the decision I was given. However, I believe that UW-Madison has not seen the full extent of me. I would like to provide this letter with additional merit to display that I am stronger than earlier evidenced in my Fall of 2016 application.
Hello, my name is Susan Stewart. I am a member of the Wheatland High School Grad Night Committee. The committee is comprised of Volunteers who plan and facilitate the Safe and Sober Grad Night event for Wheatland High School graduates. Committee members are meeting with local community businesses and leaders like yourself, to ask if they would be interested in supporting an event aimed at keeping our local teens safe on such a celebratory night.
I have been the president of my school’s Junior Civitian club for 2 years now and I was color guard caption for two years also. I have learned how to become a leader. I also went to Girl State where I learned how to become a better leader. Becoming a leader is challenging, especially in high school, when you want to do what everyone else is doing. I have learned that being a leader you should be fair and treat people as if they are your peers and not lower than you are. As a leader I am the first person their and the last person to leave. I also have made myself available to the people in Junior Civitan and the people on the color guard team. I also have an ambitious attitude, as should ever leader. I will always try to keep everyone cheerful
Happy New Year! I'm sorry for not touching base with you sooner. I've recently completed finals with Liberty University a week ago. Unfortunately, I never received your email regarding the sample lessons. However, if it's not a problem, is there a way you can resubmit it to me?
Just a reminder that the deadline for Lamar 2015 Gifts of Hope is at the end of this week. For those of you who haven't had a chance to bring in your gift we are extending the deadline to Friday December 18th. This will allow anyone to choose from the last 2 wishes on the tree for little Emmy, a seven year old who wished for a doll stroller and for 2 year old Rachel who asked for a doll, clothes, and a doll bed or any one of those items.
With the new amendment being passed the country is up in a whirlwind. There is no hope of controlling the chaos that has become unbound. This amendment, foolishly being passed by Congress has let over four million slaves free. What these absurd and uninformed politicians don’t understand is how letting these uneducated out we are putting our country in harm's way. Our communities will fall -- our nation will fall -- as our people’s livelihood has been stripped from their very fingers.
Hello, fellow students, teachers, staff, and family members from Rio Rancho Cyber Academy. I didn’t find out I was to give this speech until Wednesday morning at 9:30, and that’s probably a good thing because I may have tried to arrange not to be salutatorian if I’d had advance notice. Consequently, this speech is probably not what you would expect; and I’m sure half my class would be much more comfortable standing here in front of you I only want to make two points, and I’m sure you will appreciate it when I say they will be quick. First, I want to encourage my class, myself included, to believe in ourselves and strive to reach our goals. Second, I think we all want to thank those who were instrumental
My involvement at Texas Tech University falls heavy in the Student Government Association. As a freshman, I served as president of the Freshman Council. During my time in Freshman Council, me and 30 other freshman raised over $1,000 to be awarded to student organizations. In spring of my freshman year, I was elected to serve as an At-Large Senator for 2016-2017. I was also appointed to serve as the chair of the Intergovernmental Committee. In these positions I was able to write recognition and appreciation of service legislation for Jodey Arrington, Randy Neugebauer, and TTUPD and LPD. Just recently, I was re-elected to serve as an At-Large Senator for 2017-2018. In this role, I will also serve as President Pro Temp of the Student Senate and
“What a game, the boys, played well, Justin is a great hitter.” After winning the first game in their new renovate ballpark, excitement filled Coach Bill.
I grew up in a quaint yet homely apartment that had paint chipping off its walls and a musty, mold smell that permeated the air in a downtown Brooklyn neighbourhood where the stench of sewage was a daily occurrence and it was unremarkable to witness two asian grandmas up at each other’s throats. I wasn’t raised in the happiest and privileged place in the world yet I didn’t let my adversities throw me down to the ground. I appreciate that Columbia is like a plane. It contains people of all walks in life and educational backgrounds, but what matters most is not where we from, it is that we are all reaching the same destination, the destination where we all become open minded, educated adults.
