Persuasive Self-Assessment Throughout the semester I learned a lot about public speech and communication in general. At the beginning of the semester I was not sure what to expect from the class.

Similarly, Hesse uses Siddhartha’s journey to enlightenment to illuminate the idea that certain revelations cannot be…

My three engagement activities of service, leadership and internship complemented each other very well, because all three of my experiences taught me what it meant to be a well-rounded leader.
