ADVANCING THE MISSION

Nhu Nguyen

Class of 2015

My experience at Stevenson University was truly transformative and left an indelible mark on my heart . I was not just academically challenged , but also culturally enriched , thanks to the diverse community and

the opportunities to engage with it . I eagerly joined multiple clubs and organizations , such as AIGA , Phi Sigma Sigma , and Fashion Club , which enabled me to expand my knowledge and skills and volunteer my time towards the community while making lifelong friendships .
Also , being a part-time student employee on campus was not just about earning money , but also an opportunity to learn from supportive mentors and become a part of a thriving community . Majoring in Visual Communication Design gave me a sense of purpose , and it helped me to push myself to become the best version of myself . Through various projects and initiatives that aligned with my passions , I was able to help others and become a true leader . I have carried this same drive and passion into my career as a Creative Director working in the social change space .
Stevenson University provided me with the foundation to not just succeed in my career but also make a positive impact on society . It ’ s difficult to express just how much this experience has meant to me . It was a place where I found myself , and where I grew into the person I am today . The memories and lessons I learned there will stay with me for a lifetime , and I will always be grateful for the emotional and intellectual growth that SU brought to me .

I

really enjoyed the opportunity to get involved on campus and there were a lot of clubs to choose from . As a student leader , I was able to collaborate with other students and had the freedom to try new things . The campus has a community feel , with friends , faculty , and staff members that make it feel like family . Professors supported on campus events and , as a vegan , I appreciated the dining hall staff made sure that there were options available for me .
