During my second semester at OSU, I was appointed as an Ambassador for the College of Arts & Sciences. One of the first on-campus recruitment events that I worked was Discover ASC Day. As Ambassadors, we were supposed to talk to prospective incoming students and families at the Multicultural Breakfast and give them a warm introduction to life at OSU. Later on, there was a Majors fair where many of the popular majors of the College of Arts & Sciences had booths for future students to come up to and ask questions. Although this was not part of my job as an Ambassador, I actually helped Dr. Campbell, the Academic and Student Services Coordinator and advisor for neuroscience students, talk to prospective students interested in the neuroscience major. I have to admit, I was extremely nervous at first; I am a naturally shy person and speaking to so many people at once was daunting. However, I cannot put into words how much I enjoyed talking to all of the students. It was so natural for me because I knew exactly what they were all feeling since I was literally in their shoes a year ago. As a high school student, I remember being so anxious and scared about all aspects of college, but also not knowing what questions to ask because I had no idea what to even expect. Therefore, not only did I answer all of the questions that students asked me to the best of my ability, but when some students didn’t have any specific questions, I just talked with them about what kind of classes they should expect to take as a neuroscience major, dorm-life, and most importantly, the best places to eat on campus. I made it my mission to ease their worries about difficult classes and living on their own. I think that’s what 1^st-year students need the most- reassurance that everything will turn out okay in the end, even if there are some obstacles along the way. This event was significant because it not only allowed me the opportunity to help students, but I was also able to develop my leadership and public speaking skills, and for that I am very thankful. My role as an Ambassador has helped me realize that I want to become a mentor for 1st-year students, and I plan to apply the skills that I have learned from this event and so many others, to my positions as an HSS Peer Mentor and a PASS Peer Mentor during my sophomore year.
