Semester in Review

            Before my time at as a student in the Biological Sciences Scholars program, I was an involved student; however, the large size of the university campus and immense number of opportunities was very intimidating to an incoming freshman like myself. Becoming a member of the scholars program helped me develop greatly as an individual and as a peer leader. The program made a large campus much smaller and provided opportunities that were more specialized to different interests. Experiences such as volunteering and attending events encouraged me to take initiate and become more involved with the scholar’s program and the events occurring on campus.

Entering the biological sciences scholars program, I was unsure of what to expect and what was expected of me, but the learning community and program itself held me build relationships, connections, and gain insights. Overall, I have matured over the semester and earned more about the program, the university, and myself. Being surrounded by people that are so diverse, but also have similar interests allows for interesting discussions and a variety of opinions that widely expanded my ideas and acceptance to other things.

The personal experience and growth I experienced in only one semester provides perspective on how much room for growth there is, and that it will continue to occur. I’m learning that to facilitate this growth is the most beneficial was would be to be as involved as possible and actively seek out opportunities.
