Define You

"Say what? We are the peeps of the yellow team, say what?"

Hey ya'll!

Diversity day this year was a BLAST! From playing "cross the river" to team chants (Go team yellow!) to learning to define YOU. Being on the Multicultural Recruitment Council, I get to talk to high school seniors and juniors and talk to them about Aggie life. This year's theme was "Define You", learning to break through certain stereotypes and define who we are underneath it all. In one of our workshops we made a video to help students understand that stereotypes surround us but we need to step up and make a foundation for ourselves. Here is the video for those of you who haven't seen it or would like to see it again:



We even had Irish dancing, Polynesian dancing, and Asian Student Union dancing to Gangnam Style!
I hope all the students who came to Diversity Day this year had so much fun and were inspired to define who they are and seek a higher education. The day ended with Aggie Ice Cream, which was just the cherry on top. I hope to see all you students next year on campus as freshman.
