Growing With Each Other
"Being a Learning Community Leader has helped me realize my passion for mentoring students that are going through a new experience. So far, I am grateful to have a learning community of students that are enthusiastic about growing with each other and succeeding in their academic careers. My favorite thing about my experience as a Learning Community Leader is the connection that I have made with the students so far and how the advice that I give my students will stay with them for the next 4 years and beyond."
