I was an Owl Team Leader at Temple University for the 2014 summer, where approximately 30 Temple undergraduate students were selected from over 300 applications. I was chosen based on my ability to practice group facilitation and teamwork strategies, build interpersonal competence, and serve as positive role model of Temple University. I worked with University staff, new students, and my other team members to create a positive and welcoming atmosphere for new students and parents during summer orientation programs. Each Owl Team Leader works closely with small groups (around 25) of new students to facilitate group activities and discussions to assist students in their transition to Temple University.
