Aaron Morrison

I acted as a diplomat from the state of Venezuela. My goal was to address Transnational Organized Crime (T.O.C.) throughout the world, specifically, the South American regions.

I was nominated for this program by faculty, staff, or an upper-class student leader that identified me as a potential leader. It was not required to be an Emerging Leader to be considered a campus leader but being a part of this program allowed me to network with future leaders from my class, as well as current student leaders, meet and talk with faculty, staff and administrators, and learn about the opportunities available to me on campus and in the community. It enabled me to identify the skills that give me the potential to be a leader so that I can work to improve and strengthen those skills.

Presidential Ambassadors are students who best represent the Berry College student community. They are selected through a highly competitive nomination, application and interview process and they participate in extensive training once selected. Presidential Ambassadors are qualified to give campus tours to a variety of college guests and also assist with activities associated with many different departments, such as the offices of the President, Advancement, Admissions and Alumni Relations. In addition to serving as tour guides, Presidential Ambassadors typically serve as assistants for the Gloria Shatto Lecture Series, commencement ushers, greeters for Board of Trustees and Board of Visitors events, hosts for prospective students and much more. Presidential Ambassadors gain work experience and networking opportunities during campus events. They also have ample opportunity to be the face of Berry, and oftentimes are the first point of contact for many prospective students. Upon graduation, Presidential Ambassadors receive a letter of recommendation from President Briggs.
