Hey everybody! My name is Kelsey and this is my first year at Carolina. One month in and I'm still so excited for this year and all that it has to offer. This first month has already been such an incredible experience: meeting new people, living on my own, and simply checking out everything that Carolina has to offer! The transition at first is a little intimidating having to do everything on your own and especially going to your first classes...and taking your first exam (chemistry...ugh)! But for me, everything has seemed to just fall into place so quickly, and I hope it's doing the same for everyone else as well!
Part of my Carolina experience includes being a Carolina Covenant scholar. This program has been so amazing to me so far, offering different classes and events all to help ease the transition of high school to college and help me get prepared for the future! Part of this scholarship includes me doing Work Study. I know, I know...it sounds rough but it's been pretty awesome so far! I am currently working as the new office assistant at Carolina Leadership Development. The people in the office are so friendly and welcoming, I felt right at home from the moment I walked in.
CLD offers several different programs all encouraging students to get involved, including: FLi (First Year Leadership Initiative), NC Fellows and Carolina United. Located in the top of the Student Union, their office is always open to anyone whether you want to just come in to work on homework, chat about things or simply just hang out for a little while. I strongly encourage anyone that feels like they want to get involved or just needs somewhere to go for a little while to come check it out!
Well I hope that you all continue to enjoy your time at Carolina...it's such an beautiful place!
