What do you like most about being a Hunt Scholar?

Being a Hunt Scholar has allowed me to meet talented and inspiring individuals. Each member has their own strengths, and when combined, we are dynamic, effective, and model leaders at SMU. This group is full of intellectual, brave, curious, and unique people. With each member coming from different backgrounds, we are diverse in academics, spirituality, and cultures. As a Hunt Scholar, I look forward to participating in community service projects like I did back in high school. I am grateful to the Hunt Leadership Scholars Program for giving me this amazing opportunity!
