Welcome from guest blogger Becca Lazinsk '17GMy name is Becca and I want to introduce myself as the newest member of the Office of Alumni Engagement team. I’m so excited to “meet” all of you reading this! I’ve been a part of the SNHU community for just over six years now. Before starting my role as the Assistant Director of Alumni Engagement, I was an Academic Advisor for Global Campus. Additionally, I've had the pleasure of being both an SNHU student and a teacher, as I earned my Master’s degree here in 2017 and I'm currently an adjunct instructor. I love being a part of the University for so many reasons and my new adventure with the Alumni team is definitely reminding me why our community is simply the best!
One ongoing event that I’m especially excited for is SNHU Global Days of Service (GDS)! Like many of you I wish we could gather and give back to the community together in-person. However, until we can do that safely, I’m looking forward to the awesome GDS virtual opportunities available this year.
We have expanded our efforts by focusing on a different social issue facing our communities each month, from now through May, to make an impact when our neighbors need us most. Whether you’re learning more about an issue in our education sessions or signing up for a DIY project, I believe there is something for everyone to get involved in.
At a time when our day-to-day lives can still feel very distant, I believe GDS gives us the opportunity to find connection and inspiration through our SNHU community and beyond. I look forward to “seeing” many of you during GDS and other events as we all settle into 2021!Thank you,Becca Lazinsk ‘17GAssistant Director of Alumni Engagement
