I served as Radford University's student representative for the State Council of Higher Education in Virginia (SCHEV). I traveled to Richmond three times during the school year and sat among fellow peers on the committee to discuss the issues that each university was facing. We also analyzed solutions so that we had ideas to take back to our schools. Lastly, we participated in Lobby Day, and we spent time speaking to politicians to get them more invested in higher education. This position was closely related to my involvement in VA 21. I learned so much from both experiences.
