I want to be an officer within ALD/PES because I want to contribute to the development of the honor society, community and under-performing students. I believe that many students are not aware of the vast opportunities that are found within honors societies. I want to help under-performing students understand that striving for academic excellence can lead to intellectual stimulation, community engagement, highly-driven support groups and a wealth of scholarships opportunities. Students should not be deprived of their academic success or potential simply because they were not aware of honor societies. Moreover, students who choose to become honors society members should be constantly reminded that there is more to honor societies than just “academic

Despite not completing all of them every single day, the list keeps my priorities straight, assisting in a clutter-free mind.
