    Personal Statement: I Am Farhana Rahman

    . I am Farhana Rahman. I would be a good disease detective camp counselor because I am motivated, hardworking and no matter what type of work it is, I try to accomplish it with honesty, love and respect. I got the motivation from the CDC Disease Detective Camp Counselors of 2016. All of them seemed to be so happy being with us. They were so friendly and so caring. I got the inspiration from them to be a counselor. I just do not want to be a counselor because they are going to give the stipend money but it’s because honestly when I was a camper, I really loved that week that I spent at CDC. I love being there and I have learned many things. Through this counselor position I can lead the new campers to learn and enjoy. It was an incredible opportunity…

    Statement Of Purpose: FCCLA

    During the course of my high school career, I have developed a strong passion for the organization named the Family Career and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA). FCCLA is a Career and Technical Student Organization that focuses on building students into better leaders for their families, careers, and communities. Furthermore, FCCLA teaches students practical skills that will be useful throughout their lifetimes.

    Personal Narrative: My Experience With FBLA

    For the past 2 years I have been a member of FBLA, also known as Future Business Leaders of America. I have been under the guidance of Mrs. Gabel, Mr. Shrader, and Mrs. Smith through these last couple of years, and they have been an important part of my experience with FBLA. Through their influence, they encouraged me to volunteer through different means, such as the food drive and helping with concession stands. I volunteer my time because it helps out the community and helps those who are in need. The concession stands also were not required, but if you wanted to help fundraise, you would be helping out the local chapter. The food drive is where different members of our local chapter of FBLA gathered together, and collected extra food that people didn’t need.…

    FBLA Speech (Public Speaking)

    Today I am here to express my opinion on how can FBLA (future business leaders of America) can strengthen the confidence of students, in themselves and their work. Being a part of FBLA you will find out that there are many achievements and goals that we students will want to set and reach for. While reaching these goals that students in this program set, it’s also teaching us how to become better leaders of business. I feel without confidence you cannot get anywhere in life, no one will take you seriously and the world needs us to take charge. That’s why I strongly feel we, as students, have to have confidence in ourselves and our work.…

    Personal Narrative: The National Society Of Collegiate Scholars

    Throughout my academia, I have been a member of several clubs and organizations, but have yet to attend a free leadership and service conference. The National Society of Collegiate Scholars needs a free in-person event that hosts a multitude of workshops from becoming a better member, to becoming a better leader and more. This event should be a two-day weekend long including update meetings on how the organization is accomplishing its endeavors and goals in terms of membership count, influence in the community, and upcoming events. During a workshop, we could bring in experts to discuss how to become a better writer to increase our chances of earning NSCS scholarships and other scholarships. In another workshop, our members and club leaders…

    What Is Ffa?

    FFA develops competent and assertive agricultural leadership. Premier leadership can be obtained through many activities hosted by the FFA. One way in particular, is by attending one of the leadership and growth conferences. During these conferences members go to workshops where they learn how to become better leaders, to make a difference, and to be successful throughout life. These are very fun and beneficial conferences that all members should take advantage of. FFA members are more likely to be employed than the average high school student (National FFA Organization 4). When local FFA advisor, Matt Petrowitz, was asked what FFA meant to him, he said, “FFA to me means an organization where everyone belongs and is about leadership and tradition” (Petrowitz). He is proof that premier leadership is gained through FFA…

    Personal Narrative: My Contribution To Diversity

    Diversity is an intriguing topic and is essential to every aspect of life. By observing diversity among peers, members of a community, or even something larger like the United Nations, it allows insight to how individuals from different backgrounds interact with one another. I can contribute to diversity among peers at NC State with my lifestyle choices. For the past year I have decided to follow through with the decision of becoming a vegetarian, which I have wanted to make for the past four years. With only 3.2 percent of the United States population being vegetarian this is how I can contribute to diversity.…
