“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?” This quote bounced around my mind while at my first service event through HOSA at the Biosciences and Medicine Academy at Francis Tuttle. It was dawn and the sun had not yet poked any rays, yet me and a group of fifteen students were already hard at work tying up signs and arranging fruit. This experience was memorable not only because of the enjoyment I had, but because it allowed me to gain a desire for engaging in volunteering opportunities and also realize that through HOSA, I can gain improved communication, teamwork, and leadership skills.
I am able to analyze a setting and provide the most effective communication to clearly present a thought through spoken and non-verbal approaches. Also, I find pride in expanding contacts within my community and being a bridge of knowledge to my colleagues and friends.

Equally, SGA plays an important role for a growth of a student. SGA offers chances for student voice about what is happening here, plans, activities, suggestions, ways so that they can improve in the school. Members in SGA can do all of the things while learning about leadership, responsibility, democracy, respect, and school spirit. The president must be a good role of model and leader, should be able to run the SGA meeting with little helps, can speak in front of groups, ought to listen to different ideas, and is nice to everyone. Vice president helps the president to run the SGA meeting, is in charge of all the subcommittees in the SGA, makes sure announcements are written in posters for upcoming events and more, is well-organized, has good ideas, and is a good leader. The treasurer keeps track of how much money SGA has. If SGA spends on something, it must be reported how much SGA spent, how much is left in their account; he or she should be well-organized, is good in math, can report on SGA fund. Secretary usually takes over a big job to record ideas while people are talking and report back to future SGA meeting with the same notes, must be extremely organized, and masters taking-note techniques. Students who engage in governance activities enhance their knowledge
I am writing to express my interest in applying to Saint Joseph’s University for the Master’s program in Criminal Justice. Growing up I always admired individuals that were in law enforcement. As a child you are taught by your parents that if something bad happens to contact police because they have a duty to protect citizens. I always felt that individuals who enforced the law were the ultimate superhero. Around middle school I had the opportunity to join an extra-curricular activity that revolved around federal law enforcement. During this program I was able to fully understand the importance of law enforcement on a federal level. I discovered that federal law enforcement is vastly different than local law enforcement. Upon completion of the program it sealed
•Common Sense. I have a lot of common sense. I notice the tiny things that could make a huge difference. I'm not gullible in any way, nor would I fall for any tricks. I believe this is an important trait because if someone is very easily tricked, they could pose an issue on the staff team. I am definitely not that person.
I’ve always considered myself to have a strong work ethic. I am committed to doing whatever it takes to meet deadlines. I also have the ability to cope with failures and learn from
