H 22 mm... Key to College? If Magic Kingdom held a Key to College for high school students, where would we be holding it? Of course, at a college! On September 26, Orange Coast College Circle K and other clubs in the division ventured to Chapman University to help out with the Magic Kingdom Key to College. The focus of the day was to educate high school students with tips like how to survive the SAT/ACT and about different types of choices for college. A few of our members held workshops, led groups of high school students (frat-rorities), and actively socialized with other K-Family members. In addition, we took part in the mentor/mentee program and were able to have oneon-one connections with high school students who matched best to ourselves. Most of the attendees were CNH Key Club and CNH KIWIN’S members, so we were able to publicize Circle K in a positive way. As one of the leaders of a fratrority, I had an awesome time with my group members! We bonded, got close to one day. This was all topped off when Iand my partner, Karen Aguillon from Santa Ana College, “graduated” our team and gave them certificates to remember what they did for the day. I really loved this moment because everyone, or mostly everyone, was acknowledged and called up in front of the whole group! It really showed how much we bonded and got to know one another as we spent the day together. And even though Karen and I might have mispronounced a few names, it was the thought that counts. The Magic Kingdom Key to College was a great success! I was happy to be given this opportunity to show and develop my leadership skills as a frat-rority leader and as someone who helped set up throughout the day. Since I’m only a first year, I was proud to be able to represent my home club on the divisional level! And also a huge good job to Alex D. Nguyen and his divisional leadership team for putting this whole event together! I can’t wait for the next Key to College, I’m excited to see what new changes and improvements will come for next year’s Magic Kingdom University!
