Leadership is a difficult concept to explain because everyone defines it differently. From my personal experiences as a student leader, I can tell you that there is no single     1     of leadership, particularly with student leaders. You are a leader, a student and a peer, so this role can be especially difficult to manage. As a student leader, you deal with academic     2     , as well as the added pressure of leading a group of your peers. As the president of FUSE, the contemporary dance group at Colgate University, I experienced many ups and downs with     3     . Thankfully, my passion for this dance club gave me the    4     to lead my fellow dancers.

Finding an activity that is both enjoyable and     5     is the first step. In order to be a good leader, you must be     6     interested in what you are leading, whether it’s debating, cooking or robotics. In my case, dance has always been of interest to me, from my grandfather teaching me salsa to early childhood training with ballet, and so I always assume that dance would be part of my life. Once I arrived on my college campus, ready for my college adventure, I had a sudden     7     : wandering around the Student Activities Fair, I saw no contemporary or modern dance clubs. I panicked.

After meeting a fellow dancer at Freshmen Orientation, we found that we shared the same passion and desire to start a club. We held auditions, created club     8     and held practices. The process of creating the actual club was both fun and challenging because we had to figure out school club regulations,     9     many club rules, obtain 60 signatures of supporters and overcome other obstacles. As it turns out, this process was not a walk in the park for us.

Taking Lessons From Hard Work

At the Cool Beans Café, a dollar buys a teacher or school staff member a     1     cup of hot coffee, tea or cocoa, and gets it delivered to their door.

That dollar also has a big benefit for the seventh grade students with special needs who run the café at Poquoson Middle School. They get experience with job skills and social interactions outside a     2     classroom environment.

When the teacher Heather Hopkins started the café, she was giving the students some     3    experience of the job. Now, she offers     4     instructions and the five students all have a specific job.

Teachers order online in advance, and Jake Mann, the supply manager, takes the coffee and puts it together with a paper cup, lid and drink sleeve with the full order on it.

Braden Jobst, the barista (咖啡师), often handles several orders at a time. Alex Sarber, the assistant barista, adds the sugar, milk, or     5     else the customer wants.

The finished drinks are delivered by driver J.J. Shibuya. Jasmine Baker, the cashier, goes on the deliveries with J.J. and collects money and tips from the customers.

Hopkins started the coffee shop program this school year with $ 1,600 that was given by the Virginia Department of Education. The money was offered to give the students an opportunity to practice     6    .

One of Hopkins’ main goals is to     7     the students for life after school. The students had to apply to work in the shop, and they change jobs every month and have to apply again. Next year, she wants to introduce ideas such as giving staff a salary and asking them to pay rent, so they can make the connection between doing a job and how a person lives.

Even though the shop runs like a business, there’re a lot of opportunities to have fun at the same time.

Jake likes to     8     for photo and have fun with his co-workers. As Alex added cream and sugar to a drink, he and Hopkins joked about a customer having a complicated order that he didn’t want to mess up.

The students take pride in their work and have showed off their operation at a school board meeting.

Along with the positive experience of running the shop, the business supports some fun activities for the students. While the coffee purchases go forward buying supplies, the tips pay for field trips. This year, the students took a trip to the movies and also went for dinner at a restaurant.

After the main service     9    , the staff made and delivered their last cup of coffee. They knew to wait to make this order because the cafeteria worker who would be drinking it didn’t come in to work until later in the morning.

After that final cup was sent out, the students     10     out and put everything away before sitting at their desks, relaxing after another successful day.

My application essay to Brown

Covid-19 is a very destructive respiratory disease that has caused much pain and suffering for millions of people around the world. Although my heart grieves for all the lives lost, each of us has suffered in our own unique ways. For me, that suffering took the     1     of not getting an opportunity to play the lead in our spring drama, which was, so     2    , cancelled.

As a sophomore，my efforts to     3     the role of the wrongly accused Desdemona in William Shakespeare’s important play “Othello” were thwarted. Our drama coach, Ms. Wilkie, told me during the audition process that sophomores would be considered for     4     roles, but the parts of Othello, Iago, and Desdemona all went to upperclassmen, even though none of them had taken private     5     classes, as I have, with Leonard Michaels at the Willows Dramatic Academy for Young Performers.

This experience taught me that authority figures do not always have “the answers”, a lesson     6     when Dr. Anthony Fauci, who is a very     7     medical adviser to many Presidents of the United States of America, said at first that masks should not be worn but then said that they should.

Should I have the great     8     of studying at the Department of Theatre Arts and Performance Studies at Brown University, I vow to     9     the suffering of this past year into my art as a(n)     10     to all those, including myself who have experienced such tremendous loss.

It is believed that the immortal bard, William Shakespeare, said, “Instead of weeping when a tragedy occurs in a songbird its life, it sings away its grief” My time at Brown will be my chance to “sing away grief,’’ except that, unlike the tragedies of Shakespeare and other playwrights, my tragedy is real and therefore more tragic.
