Potential employers look for more than just a high GPA on your résumé. They also look for service involvement. This a key attribute to who you are as a person, how you balance your time, and showing that you will put effort into something that doesn’t give you a profit in return. You are willing to go the extra mile.
While here at SU, I’ve done my fair share of service and volunteer work, especially on behalf of Alpha Delta Pi sorority. There are many, many opportunities to give and support those who give during your college days. After doing so, it gives you a great sense of self worth and helps you to see there is more in life than just money.
So, I encourage during your college career, get up a couple Saturdays out of the semester and give. Give your time, your support, your energy, or an ear to listen. And if you are not sure what opportunities are available, I am sure your activities board will be more than willing to give you some ideas. Give, give, and give!
This is true. We are fortunate that SU has a lot of service opportunities for us to participate in.
