Sorry this took wayyy long but here it is . . . :)

Name: Michelle Mullins

Major: Government (right now, I might try to double in Latin American studies but I currently don’t speak Spanish so we’ll see how that goes)

Hometown: Hamilton, NJ

Service Involvement(s): Sharpe Scholar, APO, Campus kitchens, CSL, Students Helping Honduras, W&M Habitat 2008 Spring Break Guatemala

Favorite Book: Well, I read a lot so its pretty much impossible to pick an alltime favorite, but the one I’m reading now is Three Cups of Tea and I really like it so I’ll go with that

and the rambling . . .

My concept about service is pretty simple, and probably doesn’t sound all that impressive or intelligent. For me it all about one thing; people. That’s it. Its about recognizing similarities and differences, and embracing both. I think the most valuable aspect of participating in service related activities is the ability to build relationships with other people, despite socioeconomic, cultural, or other differences.
