thoughts on community



Per one H2W-ite's thoughts on the subject of community:


"As a student I feel that getting involved in a community is extremely important. While you might not expect it to really matter, it does allow you to do a lot of things. Not only does it provide you with a great opportunity to fill your resume with character-building activities but it also gives a real depth to your college experience and make life-long friends.

As for how, there are many ways. One is to volunteer
, which not only helps you grow but it also makes a difference in another's life. Just this past Friday I volunteered at the Boys and Girls Club and played UNO and air hockey with some of the kids, which though small, has potential to make an impact.

Another way is to get involved in one of the
over 300 student organizations and clubs on campus that allow you to get involved with academic, arts and entertainment, governance and more.

And last but not least, get involved in H2W, specifically our Community Council. This group of your fellow residents puts together fun events, fundraisers and is the collective voice of the three buildings.

Be a part of the SU community by getting involved!"
