Passing On Officer Duties

Hello everyone!

As the fall semester of my senior year is coming to an end and club elections are happening, I find it weird to be giving up my officer position that I have had for the past few years!

In high school, as well as college, I have always been apart of a leadership team in some capacity. But, now that I am close to graduating, it is time to pass on that position to a younger member of the club. 

Giving up your officer position can be a weird feeling. Some of you that are just beginning college may have felt this when you ended your 4-H or FFA officer careers, and I am sure the feeling was no different. 

I think it is important to find a way to stay involved. Maybe, if you are just beginning college, you are missing the leadership that you had in your high school days. Finding a new organization to be a part of can be a great way to find a place in leadership again! Specifically in the agronomy department, there are a few clubs and teams that you can be apart of that offer leadership positions. In the Agronomy Club, there are several positions that you can apply for the be a part of the officer team. There are always plenty of upperclassmen (like myself!) that are willing to help guide and train younger members to be great leaders!

Not only does leadership give you a feeling of deeper involvement within a club, but it looks really great on a resume when talking to future employers!
