STUDENT LEADER
NAME: Katherine Neil
HOMETOWN: Auburn, AL
POSITION: Assistant Station Manager, Eagle eye TV
FAVORITE INVOLVEMENT MEMORY:One of my favorite memories of involvement was spring of my freshman year. There was bad weather on campus, and all of Eagle Eye’s staff had been working for hours reporting the weather conditions, shelters, and the condition of the university. We were tired, but knew it was our role to continue to serve both students and community members, proving the most complete knowledge possible for the sake of safety. During a break between the bad weather, we walked outside and ran into Tim Cook. We were then able to interview him on an iPhone, fittingly. This taught me longevity, a skill I will always remember.
WHY TO GET INVOLVED: Involvement is special as it is a learning lab which cultivates both hands on experience, as well as camaraderie between students. The people you will meet are passionate individuals who will push you, spurring you on to greatness wherever your endeavors lead. Plus, you may meet some of your best friends!

Emerge is a successive leadership journey at Auburn University. Together, through a paradigm of service as leadership, we solve problems that exist on and around campus.
Spring Up is a one semester leadership development program that runs every January-April. This program is designed for second semester freshman-seniors who are looking to grow as a leader at Auburn and get connected to involvement opportunities on campus. Each group meets weekly and will participate in activities and hear from student leaders from many of Auburn’s largest campus organizations.
Leadership Small Groups provide an opportunity for freshmen to learn from current student leaders and discuss important leadership topics in a fun and relaxed environment. Small groups of 10-15 freshman students will be placed with a senior student leader who has experience serving in various roles and campus organizations. Applications will be available on AUinvolve in August!
The Involvement Ambassadors serve as a resource for any student or student organization seeking assistance in finding opportunities for involvement. The Involvement Ambassadors provide one-on-one consultations with students as well as workshops for larger groups. And of course, we put on the Involvement Awards in the spring.
The Black Student Union at Auburn University upholds the following principles: to represent the interests and concerns of black students at Auburn University; to bring together all aspects of black student life for the purpose of improving the campus environment; encourage involvement of black students in all campus activities; discourage and abate institutional and individual acts and symbols of racism; and promotes the Auburn spirit and tradition of excellence.
