Emerging First-Year Leaders

After a year of valuable experiences, these first-year students have become some of the most recognizable leaders on campus! Watch out for these students, they will be doing everything from Rocking the Vote next fall, to promoting their own rap album, to making a difference for students living in the residence halls.
