This wonderful student Emilio is a business management and finance major, but he’s gonna tell us more about what it means to be a St. Peter’s Peacock. I simply cannot wait, Emilio, it’s all yours.

– Hello and thank you, Alex. Here at St. Peter’s University, I’m a part of an amazing campus community full with eventful basketball games, open mic nights, game nights, and meetings with our clubs and organizations. During my time here, I’ve been invested within my double major, Business Management and Finance. The Frank J. Guarini School of Business has an amazing ambiance to study and hold group interactions within the collaboration commons area. Students come here to work on projects, and interact with peers across campus. This area also holds a course for the Goldman Sachs College Collaborative that I was a part of this past year. Throughout my time here, I took advantage of everything this campus has to offer as a full-time student leader. Some examples were being the president of my class, resident assistant, President of the Association of Latino Professionals for America, and the school mascot for our amazing March Madness run. Throughout all of my experiences, I was able to meet our state governor, hold an internship with Johnson & Johnson, and build amazing relationships that will last a lifetime. St. Peter’s invest in all of its students and relationships with outside partners. Some of these examples can be our newly-renovated areas, such as our athletics arena and new dorm room facilities. Peacocks make sure that we can all flock together in a great manner. If you guys would like a nice fun fact, St. Peter’s University is the first number 15 seed to ever reach the Elite Eight in tournament history. Now, imagine being on the core for that one. And if you guys would like, I can show you some historic dance moves as the school’s mascot. Now, back to you, Alex.

– The school mascot? Emilio, I am honored to be in your presence, and those were some pretty sick moves. Thank you for sharin’ the Peacock spirit.
