I Want To Be A Hokie

Decent Essays
To be a Hokie is to be someone with immense spirit, camaraderie, an incredible history, and a path to a successful future. The first reason that I want to be a Hokie is due to the way they carry themselves and their school's reputation. I desire to be a part of a community that can come together in the face of any challenge or encumbrance. The immeasurable opportunities that would come my way is yet another reason I want to be a part of the Hokie nation. To be able to pursue a major that suits me is only a small factor out of many other opportunities. The next reason is that I would be able to collaborate with strikingly distinct cognitive abilities and thought processes, through this, the ability to invoke something astounding would grow.
