Hello all,
As I am entering my 5th and final year as an EEPster, I would like to give back to the community I was essentially raised in by becoming leading EEP Club. I have a love-hate relationship with this place. I love the unique friendships, environment, and creativity that our community has, but at the same time, I am vexed because I always see things that can be done better and things I could add to the club.
In the 2017-2018 administration, I had one of the most wonderful experiences planning events as assistant social chair with my peers. I found a passion for organizing events and looking over every detail to make our events as fun as possible. In the 2018-2019 administration, I served as the link between my peers and the club as my year’s representative and had an absolute blast writing emails I hoped they would read. Finally, this year I have served as your Vice President and have worked to support this administration in every aspect that I could, from advising the social committee to decorating the kitchen and have enjoyed seeing people and projects come together.
In addition to these positions in EEP Club, I have served the Cal State LA community in other organizations. This past year, I have served as the EEP-Honors College Student Liaison in the Honors College Steering Committee (big phrase mean I get to meet important Honors College leaders and represent EEPsters). I worked to represent you in fundamental aspects concerning Honors College curriculum and Early Entrance Program Admissions. I have also had the pleasure of meeting the future generation of EEPsters by working as Head Mentor. And finally, I have served as the Chemistry and Biochemistry Club’s Public Relations Chair this year—which gave me valuable knowledge about communication, social media outreach, and merchandise design.
This club and community has helped me grow as a person, and I am extremely grateful for all of the experience I have gotten thus far. However, I think it is time for me to use all of that experience to leave a lasting impact on the community we all love so much. I have witnessed the successes and shortcomings of every event and initiative in EEP Club for the past 3 years and hope you will join me in my efforts to push EEP Club to a higher standard. Under the other sections of this website, you will find the plans I have for improving our community and hope you will take the time to go through them. If you would like a formal and no shenanigans read through of my initiatives, please click here. Otherwise, feel free to enjoy my marriage to EEPC and my work. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and I hope you will join the A-train!
Take care,
Amanda Tran
