MAKE CONNECTIONS<br />

THAT COUNT<br />

First-generation college student<br />

Diana Hernandez (BBA) came<br />

from a small high school where<br />

every face was a friend. Getting<br />

acclimated to life on a Big Ten<br />

campus was overwhelming at first.<br />

Diana took action by diving<br />

headfirst into activities at <strong>Tippie</strong>.<br />

“Student organizations helped me<br />

meet some of my best friends in<br />

college, making it easier to be<br />

away from home,” she said.<br />

But student orgs gave Diana<br />

more than friendship. Business<br />

fraternity Alpha Kappa Psi helped<br />

her network with other students<br />

and faculty, creating professional<br />

connections she’ll use her entire<br />

career. And her involvement in the<br />

Business Student Ambassadors<br />

helped her learn how to juggle<br />

priorities and come out on top.<br />

“Getting involved on campus<br />

was the greatest thing I<br />

could’ve done to overcome<br />

being homesick.”
