Leadership and Involvement with Nisttha
Segment #4 from Notre Dame of Maryland University
Transcript
Nisttha has gotten involved in leadership and traditions on campus. Within the close-knit community at NDMU, students find countless ways to get involved from campus activities and student clubs to community service and residential life. Jumping in, meeting others, leading, it all happens right here, and it happens to be a lot of fun too. Tell us more, Nisttha.
– Thanks for that introduction, Alex. As a kid, I’ve always dreamed of being a doctor but I didn’t wanna stop there. I forever envisioned myself as a leader in healthcare and taking the initiative to advocate for any issues I see. My education has always been the top priority, but little did I know that NDMU would strive to show me the value of leadership development. With the student to faculty ratio of 7:1, it is no shock that the class sizes are 1/100th of state colleges. I like to familiarize myself with my peers, educators, and faculty, and NDMU is the perfect institution for this. As a Bonner Leader, Student Engagement Coordinator, SAGE representative, and member of the SGA, it’s fair to say that I am out and about on campus for most of the day. Hosting campus-wide events, volunteering with staff for other NDMU events and traditions, and connecting staff with students are always that I have met new people and gotten involved with the NDMU community. Through all of these encounters, I have developed and improved on several leadership qualities, such as resilience, critical thinking, and problem solving. It is evident that NDMU cherishes the value of leadership and involvement, and provides each of our students with an opportunity to meet new people and build relationships. NDMU highly prioritizes the establishment of student organizations, where students can find a common niche with others and build a strong of friendship to take with us for a lifetime. NDMU strives to bring out the best you. As a scholar, I can proudly say that I’m on the right track to further find out who I am as a person as well as reaching my dream of becoming a successful leader in the medical field. Over to you, Alex.
– Thank you, Nisttha. There is no shortage of ways to be involved on campus, even while preparing for med school. The programs here provide the individualized attention and support you need to be ready for a challenging professional program at the graduate level. Thanks again and take care, Nisttha.
