A majority of my college experience has been encouraging students on my campus to remain civically engaged and open-minded at The Center for Civic and Community Engagement. There I work on campus 3 days a week as Team Leader of my fellow ambassadors, encouraging students, faculty, and staff members to come by to ask any questions about volunteerism, organizations that help students struggling financially with food sources, clothing, and shelter. This past fall, our mission has been focusing on educating our campus about the 2020 election, this includes: understanding mail-in ballots, absentee ballots, drop box locations, local counties that you must vote in, registering to vote, finding non-partisan news sources, etc. We have also been encouraging our students to learn more at our sessions and to talk amongst fellow students and staff about issues that they feel are necessary to our sessions about education.

Throughout my schooling experience, I have always found it necessary to push myself further and push new limits, by being apart of an honors college I hope to expand my mind and limits further as I move away from my junior college to a four-year university. I love the thought of a challenge and refuse to shy away from them. I am currently in the honors program here at Northampton where I have taken Honors Sociology, a very complex and exciting course. In the class I learned of many great minds that contributed to theories and comments on behavioral patterns. The course was tough, but I felt absolutely great finishing it out, learning things about myself and the world that I share with others and apply them to my life. The honors class gave me a sense of freedom because the professor allowed us plenty of space to learn and discover on our own and also gave us a seminar-like class experience, which I enjoyed over other lecture structures.

Without the exposure to the honors class, I would not have understood my preferred style of learning. I was so used to the teacher lectures, students participated in a style of learning. I felt more confident in speaking up in my classes, engaging with students more, and feeling comfortable with the art of informed arguments. In regular courses, I feel like I am not getting the same experience as I did in my honors course. I at times do not feel challenged or when I am overwhelmed I cannot reach my teacher individually because of the amount of students in the class. I believe the honors college is the perfect place for me to improve upon my current abilities while also challenging me for the better.
