During the week leading up to the Ohio State Homecoming Parade, the Member Development committee of the Mount Leadership Society Scholars Program spent our free nights working on building an amazing float. As a first year, it was so exciting to experience the atmosphere and excitement of both the float building process and the parade itself. It taught me a lot about the value of teamwork and the power of adaptability, because sometimes things will not go exactly the way we may plan that they will. Making sure we didn’t let anything get in our way of building an amazing float was perhaps the most important takeaway from this experience, and it certainly paid off, because in the end our float turned out pretty incredible!
