My experience at UM-Flint has been amazing. I still recall spending my first Michigan winter wearing only a hoodie. Being miles away from Mauritius, UM-Flint has become my home away from home. Granted, there have been some tough times, as all college students’ face, however, our university has kept me on my toes since I got here and I am forever grateful for that. I have learned to appreciate the beauty and potential for growth existent in flint. Our university has pushed me to my limits and has forced me to keep going, and the great thing is I never once felt like giving up because of the constant support of my peers, professors, and administrators to do well. I have learned to appreciate the little things - professors that are always willing to see you, sitting in on sensitive committee meetings, being able to help students through my leadership. There is a wealth of experience at UM-Flint, and if you take the time to talk to just a few people, you will be mind blown at how much you learn about the world and yourself. Thank you to each person I have interacted with in the past four years. You have played a role in sculpting the person I am today. UM-Flint has played an inherent part in my personal growth. Coming in as a freshman I never dreamed I would have the opportunity to get so involved on and off campus. Whether it was by running for leadership positions within organizations, volunteering in the community or representing the university at national conferences. I've walked out of classes pondering the meaning of life and questioned my purpose in it. I have been in some challenging situations, but with the help of the amazing support system I have here, and a good dose of determination, I overcame these challenges. UM-Flint has helped me realize the potential I have to be an enabler of change - I want to help the world - Cliche, I know. But UM-Flint has made me realize that this is very possible and it starts with your willingness to drive sustainable change for the betterment of others whether you work in the non-profit sector, the for-profit sector or neither. I am currently preparing my applications for graduate school and actively looking for a job dealing with project management.
