Being the president of two large on-campus organizations may sound like a daunting task, but to one student, it is an exciting opportunity. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Third-year early childhood education and special education dual major Mya Maloney balances a plethora of student activities. Most notably, Maloney is the president of both LVC\u2019s student government and the student programming board. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the president of two of the most active organizations on campus, Maloney\u2019s constantly exercising her leadership skills and looking for ways to grow herself both in her extra curriculars and her academics.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBeing involved on campus has allowed me to grow some of the leadership skills I already had,\u201d Maloney said. \u201cIt\u2019s also made me more confident in the classroom as a future teacher.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During her time as president, she has already implemented policies that have fostered a welcoming environment for members of the organizations. Maloney ensures that everyone in the student government and student programming board feels a sense of belonging in and out of meetings.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHaving these experiences has given me the confidence to put myself out there and be a friendly face on campus for others,\u201d Maloney said.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only is Maloney involved in student government and student programming boards, but she also serves as the vice president of both the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) and the Student Pennsylvania State Education Association (SPSEA).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maloney also spent her summer studying abroad in Perugia, Italy, where she got to learn about education styles on an international level. She also came back to campus early to serve as one of the orientation leaders for the incoming class of 2029.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although she may only be a junior, Maloney plans to continue to hold leadership roles throughout the remainder of her academic career.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy experiences have led me to make amazing relationships with students, faculty and staff here on campus,\u201d Maloney said. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t change it for anything.\u201d  <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
