Not only for organizational development but also for improving student achievement.” Venus said in welcoming the new management.
Venus shared her personal experience when she was still active as Chair of the Association and also as an activist. According to him, through student organizations they can build a wider network, gain leadership values, provide greater self-confidence, and get additional pocket money. Venus said all of these things so that the new management would be motivated in carrying out their duties and responsibilities.
Venus administrators advised to provide equal opportunities for all students to participate in student organizations. The hope is that during the recruitment process, the acceptance of members is not limited by the applicant's GPA, “….My friend is a commissioner now, before his GPA was only 2.5.
