From the time I began to search for colleges and schedule campus tours as a high school senior, the University&#8217;s focus on student-driven research initiatives made it a top choice. I met with an alumni interviewer at a college coffee shop, and after listening to her describe her undergraduate experience I became even more enamored of the school that would become my (and my siblings\u2019) alma mater. Since the first day of orientation, I was presented with opportunities for growth and exploration at every turn.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I volunteer today as an alumni interviewer, because now more than ever students are presented with thousands of pieces of information about the colleges they might be interested in from the hundreds of websites that exist. As an interviewer, I find it meaningful when talking to students to let them know about the multitude of organizations I was part of at Rochester. It is so interesting how the smallest thing can resonate with someone, and it is always a great opportunity to advocate for the numerous advantages of a U of R education.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Volunteering led me to joining the George Eastman Circle because I was interested in being more involved in the University community and in helping support the causes that are important to me. As the oldest of several kids (all of whom so far are Yellowjackets), going to school with a competitive merit scholarship program was make or break. The Circle offers members the opportunity to fund scholarships for the next generation of scientists, teachers, and dreamers. Beyond scholarships, the Circle is involved with and intricately intertwined with so many of the University&#8217;s pioneering initiatives &#8211; and I want nothing more than to continue the U of R&#8217;s tradition of being a school where students, faculty, staff, alumni are always growing and exploring.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">[vc_separator type=&#8217;normal&#8217; position=&#8217;center&#8217; color=&#8217;#065143&#8242; thickness=&#8221; up=&#8217;20&#8217; down=&#8217;20&#8217;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5 id=\"report\" class=\"article_subhead\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Your Philanthropy at Work<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/giving\/gec\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/gec-brochure-19_thumbnail.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-36512 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/giving\/gec\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/gec-brochure-19_thumbnail.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"197\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Every day of the year, George Eastman Circle members create a tremendous impact by supporting hundreds of funds across every corner of the University and its Medical Center. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/giving\/gec\/downloads\/impact-2019\/index.html#p=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here<\/a><\/strong> to view our <strong>2018-19 Philanthropic Impact<\/strong> report, and see firsthand the remarkable difference you make with your leadership.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Along with updates on what member gifts make possible, you will also find a special <strong>Volunteer Honor Roll<\/strong>, which highlights those who provided gifts of time, talent and treasure.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">[vc_separator type=&#8217;normal&#8217; position=&#8217;center&#8217; color=&#8217;#065143&#8242; thickness=&#8221; up=&#8217;20&#8217; down=&#8217;20&#8217;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5 id=\"houston\" class=\"article_subhead\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Show Us Your Town: Houston<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/giving\/gec\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/190606_Lab_21021.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-36532 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/giving\/gec\/newsletter\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/190606_Lab_21021-e1567776205836.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Our tour of Rochester\u2019s Regional Networks turns to Houston, home to nearly 1,200 alumni and 33 George Eastman Circle members\u2014including J.J.
