Mission Statement for my time in USP

I decided to listen to songs instead for my quiet time just this once, and the first song was: Who am I?

Just moments earlier, I felt compelled to express what I wanted for USP, in the context of the things that I'm trying to do.

A very simple thing came out:

I wanted to leave USP better than it was when I first came in.

And then BAM! - Who am I, that the Lord of all the Earth, would care to know my name....

I won't be able to do that, or do anything fruitful without God. Or without friends, for that matter. And now, I shall start, to gather like-minded people, and begin to see the possibilities.

Two ways:

Academic, and Community.

Academic: Pushing the boundaries of USP so that others after me can find an-already trodden path.

Push the academic boundaries not just in USP, but in NUS and in Singapore as well.

Current ideas: Raise the possibility of even a Singapore Studies minor, open the possibilities for accredited modules with NTU and SMU...

Community: Finding ways to allow juniors to bond within themselves to pool their learning together, and to engage the seniors when they need to. Provide the juniors with the tools to find peers in USP from their own major, and to look for seniors who are willing to do the job of being a mentor like figure...

I think all these just about sums up why I'm pushing all these boundaries...

But why do I even want to leave USP better than when I first entered?

1. Because USP has given me so much, that naturally, I feel compelled to return.

2. Because I want those who come after us to have a better USP.

and... Because its something from God.
