March Edition: What a busy month!
HVT Student Leader Spotlight: BSU President, Sydney McLean
My experience in FAM has been relatively great this year. FAM has given me some amazing networking opportunities including working with United Way. Without FAM I would not have gotten the experience to be the 2023 Black Student Union President. I am very grateful for my involvement in the FAM program, without it I would not have had the chance to learn what real leadership is.
