The next summer I knew I needed to become a part of that support system for others and thus accepted the position as an EOF Resident Program Assistant. Throughout my undergraduate career and as an EOF student myself, I had many Student Affairs professionals guide me to academic success and personal development; as a result I found myself wanting to do the same for my fellow peers through the program.

I strongly believe that students gain more from their college experience learning and growing outside of the classroom rather than inside. Self-discovery and personal exploration through extra-curricular…

Could you believe that an innocent mans life was ruined just because of his religion? The Dreyfus Affair was blatant anti-semitism. An innocent French soldier was convicted for a dreadful crime, just because he was Jewish. It is clear he was only imprisoned as a result of anti-semitism for countless reasons.
