Our goal is to transform students' lives so that they may go out into their communities and transform others through collaboration, innovation, and empathy-driven leadership. In this essay, share a time where you were able to use your knowledge/skill/experience that you gained through your time at SUNY Delhi and apply that to your personal life and/or community in order to empower, improve, or transform someone else's life (e.g. applying your public speaking skills to advocate for someone; applying your hands-on technical knowledge to help a friend or give back to your community, etc.). How do you apply what you've learned at SUNY Delhi to your life and the larger community you live in?
