ACPA Ambassador Application
1. Why are you applying to be an Ambassador? What do you hope to get out of this experience?
I am applying to be an ACPA Ambassador to become a liaison between Clemson University and ACPA. I’m also applying because Dr. Havice (our student affairs department head) felt I would be great fit as an Ambassador representing Clemson University. This same sentiment was echoed by another professor in our leadership department here at Clemson.
If I am selected as an Ambassador, I hope this role will afford me the opportunity to create connections between the Clemson and the ACPA community; both on a regional and national level. Moreover, I hope this experience will provide me networking opportunities with other students with career aspirations in the student affairs arena. I also envision this role providing me a platform to foster better communication between the students in my PhD program and the students in Clemson’s student affairs master’s program.
2. How would you work to connect ACPA with other graduate students and new professionals at your institution?
In order to connect ACPA with other students and new professionals here at Clemson, I would first create a listserv that included all students in our student affairs program and our higher education PhD program. Additionally, I would include new student affairs professionals as well. This listserv would be used to send out weekly or bi-weekly communication to ensure that information from ACPA was being funneled to Clemson University. Secondly, I would make sure everyone on my campus understood the vision and mission of ACPA, along with understanding the importance of joining the association. Moreover, I would make sure other graduate students and ne...

...f committee/listserv/network? If yes, are you a member or able to solicit and disseminate information to this group? If no, would you be willing to start one?
Yes, Clemson has a listserv for all PhD students in the educational leadership department, but this listserv does not include the master’s program students in student affairs. As it stands now, there is very little communication between the two programs. I am a member of the PhD listserv, I could use the list serve as a tool to disseminate information as an ACPA Ambassador. However, I think the benefits of creating a new listserv are far greater. In doing so, I could target all students in the student affairs program/students with aspirations of working in student affairs in the doctoral program, along with new student affairs professionals here at Clemson. This method would be more strategic in my opinion.
I am writing to express my strong interest in being a member of Alpha Omicron chapter of Alpha Kappa Psi. I am currently a sophomore at Syracuse University, and will be graduating in 2020 with a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science and a minor in Global Political Economy.
There is always the symposium which is a good place to get your name out and make connections.
The purpose of Alpha Kappa Alpha is to promote sisterhood in colleges to assure a bond between college women, and the sorority leads by being an example for other college women to follow. Alpha Kappa Alpha also promotes higher education and positive self-esteem to younger women. Alpha Kappa Alpha also gives back to the community in community service that could range from educating our women on relevant topics to just lending a hand in the community. I want to contribute to this purpose at Mississippi State University and back in my hometown.

It was sometimes difficult to meet with other students to discuss group assignment or to study because of different time zones. I have not been able to join the PRIDE diversity impact program which is a great way to connect with others. At the beginning of the program I felt isolated. Nevertheless, as time went by and with better time management, my interaction with fellow learners became easier and more frequent. I am happy for the opportunity and the flexibility offered by this program to improve my professional development.
As a member, I engage in mentoring programs for school aged students in my community. I interact and support other individuals in achieving goals to address social challenges. I am also active in other initiatives
Since each new SGA administration requires a different set of credentials and standards, we are still unsure exactly what will be required of us. However, in previous years, starting a new club has required a faculty adviser as well as 10 committed members. We recruited members by reaching out to each of our groups as well as one other past group and received five interested responses, which makes seven including ourselves. In the fall, Ben has offered to reach out to all trip alumna to gain more interest for the club. The goals of the club would be to bring students from previous alternative break trips to Natuwa together to help better the program, make Ramapo students time in Natuwa more beneficial, and prepare new students to attend Natuwa on their trips. Having a club related to Natuwa on campus would allow us to host activities such as seminars and fundraising tables to raise awareness and educate people about the struggles facing the sanctuary. With the support of Ben Levy, we will be able to contact various departments around campus to ask for resources for a possible research lab as well as suggest class projects centered around improving

I finally went around speaking with various individuals in my organization to gather their thoughts of the AGCRA. The most frequent comment by these individuals was, "What does AGCRA have to offer me besides the 1775 three times a year for my dues?" I would like to attempt to answer and persuade members of the AG I HR community to join their local chapter.
It is a tremendous honor to apply to American University’s School of International Service, Master of International Service program with a concentration in Global Security. American University has resonated with me since a young age, when I first heard John F. Kennedy eloquently deliver his Strategy for Peace speech. His encouraging words of peace and prosperity have profoundly affected my life, and inspired me to pursue a higher education in International Relations. Additionally, JFK’s speech and the many others at American University prompted me to research the school and its rich history further. My research on American University has only impressed me. I believe I would be a significant contributor to American University due to my professional
