I love UVA and am so excited to share a little of the place I call home with you all. UVA is a big school, but it starts to feel much smaller once you arrive. I quickly met friends on my hall and in my dorm, and began to join clubs and other activities that gave me my own community within the larger UVA bubble. One of these communities has been the University Guide Service, which I joined second semester of my first year, and which gave me some of the best mentors and friends I could have ever asked for.
We travel to different places around the Charlottesville community and work with Spanish speakers and students to help with English language practice and other tutoring. LAMA is one of my favorite things to do at UVA because it has allowed me to grow a community and build relationships with people in the Charlottesville area, not just inside the UVA bubble.
As an in-state student, I knew a lot of people who came here every year and I wanted to be the one who did something different. But it never really came, and I think that for a lot of people, it never really does. I have met people who 3D print toys for fun, who organize climate strikes, and who take on passion projects to keep making this University a better place. Posted by Dean J at AM.
