Why did you want to become a Student Ambassador?: I remember what it is like to be in high school, and I definitely remember how crucial the college decision-making process is. Here at Brockport I have become increasingly more involved as each academic year has progressed. Becoming a Student Ambassador is definitely something that I have wanted to do because I want to share my experience here at The College at Brockport, everything that it has offered to me both professionally and personally.
