Hi guys! I hope everyone is having a relaxing, fulfilling summer, and I'm excited to meet all the SLC members this fall!
Name: Sarah Van Dine
Major: Neuroscience, minor in Hispanic Studies
Hometown: Stratford, Connecticut

Favorite Book: I have a few, but I just finished reading a book entitled "Hope in Hell"-a documentary of Doctors Without Borders. It's a really interesting read for anyone interested in international medical service!

Service: William and Mary Medical Relief, Spring Break Service Trips-Student Director, Volunteer EMT-I (back in Connecticut), and hopefully more to come.

A little about me... I would refer to myself as a "blue-eyed funk machine" (if you've seen Blades of Glory with Will Ferrell, you'll get it). I'm just really spunky, enjoy trying to make other people laugh, and try to get the most out of life. I've always been the type of person who enjoys doing/being involved in a million different things at once. So through the years I've accumulated tennis, swimming, dancing, music, and service as some of my interests. I started doing service projects through my church in high school, and like many of you as well, service became contagious. It seems like a common question is "What is service?" and I've come to the conclusion that "service" encompases so many aspects that can not be pinned down to one simple definition. However, in my life I've realized that I serve to inspire others to do the same. So one of my favorite aspects of service is the inspiration that stems from the act of helping others.
