Hi everyone! My name is Vy. For the first two weeks of school, I have explored around and found clubs and organizations that really strike me as “WOW”. They are Alpha Kappa Psi, Undergraduate Student Government, and Vietnamese Student Association. 

I am currently rushing for Alpha Kappa Psi, that means going to a philanthropy, social, and professional event to qualify for an interview. However, I intend on going to all of the events because they are really fun and I learn a lot from each event. So far, I have a streak of 4 for 4: Boba Babble, Bro Panel, Game Night, and Sports Day. My favorite was Sports Day because I get to really interact with the brothers and get to know them better, as well as expand my network and knowledge in the field of marketing, such as getting recommendation from brothers about which internship should I apply to and who I should reach out to. *I’m on the third row, NASA shirt, in the picture below.

As for Undergraduate Student Government, I’m really excited for Homecoming Week and Homecoming Day on September 19! There will be so many games and giveaways, and I get to be a ref for the games on Homecoming Day. I’m also looking forward to planning events as a member of the Student Affairs Subcommittee and hoping to be a Vice Chair as well, given that I will be able to be hands-on with the planning and get to network with more people that work alongside with the Undergraduate Student Government. 

Furthermore, even though I have only visited the Vietnamese Student Association’s office to ask various questions, I do look forward to their events that celebrates and acknowledges Vietnames holidays. That’s why I am also applying for a position as Cultural Chair in order to bring more awareness about the Vietnam culture on campus. Looking to be proactive as a first year student!
