“Tension is here between who you are and who you could be; between how it is and how it should be.” -“Dare You to Move” by Switchfoot
A special thank you towards the Saint Rose staff is needed because their positive attitudes brought us Student Association Director of Social Activities Meagan Corbett. Everyone she met on her tour was extremely nice. “I thought it was a job requirement,” she said. “Everyone was happy and willing to help. Also, class size was a big factor.”
Being on the Student Council for three years in high school really helped Corbett with her tasks as Director of Social Activities. Knowing she wanted to join SA freshman year, she said, “I like being behind the scenes. I like knowing everything.” Who doesn’t? “I planned a lot in high school. I like putting my name on events, especially if they’re successful!”
High school really helped in her abilities with time management and event planning. “Being busy in high school helped with the ‘busy-ness’ I deal with now.”
Corbett oversees the Student events Board and MEISA (Music and Entertainment Industry Student Association). She attends their meetings and events, and tends to their financial needs. She plans the Fall Activities fair, blood drives, Rose Rock, and Harvest Fest.
Outside of Sa, Corbett is involved with Dance Club, the Treasurer of Saint Rose Student Alumni Association, and is co-writing a musical and web series with John MacDonald.
Corbett’s advice is simple: “Get involved. Put yourself out there. If you don’t do that, you won’t get anywhere.”
