could be. One day I got an email from the international advisor regarding on-campus employment as a “Maverick Leader” and applied. I got the job and started working in November 2012, and my entire college experience changed. I also learned about Phi Theta Kappa and their benefits and became a member in April 2013. The Maverick Leader program, which is similar to being an Ambassador on campus, provided me with the knowledge about what college has to offer; career exploring, tutoring, campus life,…

As a little girl I always knew I wanted to own my own business. I would dress up in my mother’s dress suits and carry around her brief case. My parents would ask me, what do you want to be when you grow up? I would respond, a boss! As I got older I realized the only way I would be happy in my career is if I worked for myself. It wasn’t because I am incapable of working for someone else, but because I know that if I run my own business it will be done the right way. Working for others gives us…

worse. Switching to a community college has helped me learn my time management and studying skills. I limited my social and concentrated more on studies. I excelled in my academic at the community college and was accepted into Honors Society Phi Theta Kappa. I continue seeking psychologist to cope with my depression and anxieties. I did not let me mistakes and failures keep me down but instead found a way to fight back and stay…

transferred from Prince George’s Community College and the second is that the cost is lower than UM.

What attracted you to the ENGL major? There are several reasons why I…
