“Why do I enjoy being a student ambassador at McDowell Tech? I’m so glad you asked!

As a student ambassador, I’m able to serve other students and enhance their college experience. I’m given the opportunity to assist faculty behind the scenes at various events throughout the year, such as Convocation, New Student Orientation, and Graduation. I have a small role in making these events a success, and McDowell Tech has some of the best faculty to work alongside. During my first year of college, I’ve met some amazing fellow students, improved my team-building and leadership skills, and made some wonderful friends on our ambassador team. But by far, my favorite part of being a student ambassador is the privilege to represent and give back to the place and people to are helping me on my journey to learn, grow, and achieve my dream.”

“One of the reasons I became a Student Ambassador was to learn how to be a better leader and have the opportunity to share with prospective students what McDowell Technical Community College has to offer. Volunteering as a Student Ambassador for campus events allows me to build relationships with the students, staff, and instructors at MTCC. Being a Student Ambassador is essential because it allows me to learn as much as possible to achieve my career goals for the future.”

“I wanted to become an ambassador to strengthen my connection with the college, which has helped me immensely throughout my time with them. I have taken mainly online classes, so in joining this program I hoped that I would be able to make stronger relationships with the people of McDowell Tech. Being an ambassador means that I get to help the college just as they have helped me and get more experience and opportunities! I love being an ambassador and the connections I get to make with everyone on campus!”
