2020 has been a tough year, but as always, the Aggie spirit will persevere!

BE

            Strive to remain self-aware of how you interact with others and try to see other’s perspectives.

TEACH

            Take time to give back lessons you’ve learned and grow your leadership skills in the process.

HATELESS

            With all that’s going on in our world, focus on diminishing negativity, not adding to it.

OPEN

            Communication is necessary for healing and maintaining relationships with roommates, family, friends and significant others. Take time for yourself, let your brain rest regularly and try not to stay on social media too long.

CREATE

            Make opportunities for yourself, whether that’s a non-engineering position to grow in a different way or networking to virtually shadow someone at your dream company.

ORIENT

You will get off track and make mistakes, but what’s important is making your own path to where you want to end up, and there are MANY ways to get there.

VOLUNTEER

            Homeless, food and pet shelters are constantly in need, so grab your personal protection equipment and get out there.

INDIVIDUALIZE

            If you want to set yourself apart from other engineers, focus on a unique hobby outside of engineering.

DREAM

            Think bigger than ever, set reachable goals for yourself and make a list of things you want to accomplish or do once quarantine is over.

Nine selfless acts a week will undoubtedly boost your spirits and those of the people you help; it’s the act of building each other up that will get us through this global pandemic.
