Last year I was appointed the group leader for each group project I had. In addition, when I first transferred to Towson, one of my professors (to this day I still do not know who), nominated me to the National Society of Leadership and Success. A professor must nominate you to the society in order for you to get a letter asking you to join the exclusive society.…
