By becoming involved in Student Government at the University of Florida, not only will it expose me to more legitimate government experiences, but it will also create a means of building relationships with other student leaders who will work towards similar goals in order to impact the student body in an effective way.

In order to fully understand something I will need to put what I learn into practice. The University of Florida is a school that will not only challenge me academically, but will connect me to different sources that could catalyze my success in the future.

After changing majors from finance to economics to mechanical engineering to mechanical engineering and economics, I realized the coursework was not going to be enough of an obstacle.

I would like to be involved in student council because I think it is important for the students to have involvement in their school, so that if they do not like something about their school they can make a difference about it with the help of mentors.
