    Ah, more advertising? :P

    I’d help out, but I’m defs not extroverted enough. Plus I’m not a big fan of Imagine…

      Yes, more promotional messages for the betterment of the world. :)

      Why does one need to be extroverted to be an Orientation Leader? One could take part in the process through a number of roles. I think leadership is more than simply what’s on the surface. The most extroverted person may not necessarily be the most competent. A lot of it is more about facilitating discussion and listening to the ideas of others, rather than dominating conversations and projecting one’s presence. Besides, in my opinion, the more insightful leaders are the ones who succeed in the long run.

      You’re not the biggest fun of Imagine? No worries! There’s GALA! :P But, seriously though, if you’re not such a huge fan then you would be in the perfect position to apply as an Orientation Leader. Remember: be the change you want to see in the world. ;) Why not get out there and make the orientations experience a better one for incoming students?
