Discuss your 1:1 with
Alyssa and Adrian. Discuss your LEAD class and the LEAD Program. What would you
change? What have you enjoyed?
I had my one-on-one interview with Adrian in the Lead Lounge. It was
pretty casual and I was comfortable talking with him about my experience with
my classes, the LEAD program, and my social life.
First, I told him that I was doing well in all of my classes, but I have
some room for improvement. For example, I could definitely study more. This
would help for long-term remembrance of all of the information taught in class.
Also, I could stop procrastinating on my homework and other assignments. This semester,
I have procrastinated on many assignments, which is something that I would love
to stop by the spring semester.
Next, we talked about how I liked participating in the LEAD program. I
told him that I really liked it so far. I’ve made a lot of friends and enjoyed
hanging out and studying in the LEAD Lounge. Furthermore, I was selected to be
Selection’s assistant director alongside Naureen, who is the actual director.
As assistant director, I help Naureen run meetings, mediate group members, and
plan events.
Lastly, Adrian and I talked about my social life here in Orlando. I told
him that I’ve had a great time making new friends and going out and socializing!
I’ve participated in many events hosted by UCF, which have been amazing!
Something that I would change about the LEAD program would be that a lot
more people were involved in the events in the LEAD Lounge. For example, whenever
I go into the lounge, I see a lot of the same faces. I would like for the other
students, who are not as involved in LEAD to become involved so that we could
all get to know them!
Something that I have enjoyed would be just the overall atmosphere of
LEAD and the amazing staff. I have met many positive leaders through this
program and am happy that I joined it!
