Well, let me tell you why...

1. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you get to give tours of the place we all love so much!

From SSC to the village to the quad and a ton of fun stops in between, you get to show off the amazing campus we are all so blessed to call home!

2. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you get to serve your fellow students, prospective students AND their families, Admissions and the Harrisonburg community!

Whether giving tours or serving on one of our organization's committees, you get to make a direct impact on others and embody the JMU mission to "Be the change".

3. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you get a second family.

Over a hundred new pals who will bring out the best in you and never again will you be able to walk through the Student Success Center without a million hellos, hugs and huge smiles from our favorite booth!

4. As a JMU Student Ambassador, you are given daily opportunities to become the best YOU can be.


Whether gaining customer service skills answering questions on tours, becoming a better communicator as you lead families around campus or learning how to be a more aware citizen through service in the community, SA will challenge you to become a more confident and authentic YOU!

5. As a JMU Student Ambassador, YOU get to serve as the face of JMU.

Whether your purple polo is on or off, you are a representation of the authentic, service-minded and passionate students we call the students of James Madison University. But the purple polo doesn't make you, YOU make the purple polo.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day.
