What do you like most about being a Hunt Scholar?

I am really excited to grow as a leader and to be part of a community that is so focused on giving back to others. Participating in the Hunt Scholars Program will give me the opportunity to connect with like-minded peers, gain experience in many different fields of interest, and push me out of my comfort zone in the best way. Having older Hunt Scholars as mentors and eventually becoming a mentor myself is an important tradition and something that I am very excited for!
