A
college is a place where students not only learn about their chosen
courses, but also can have the opportunity to be a part of great
community initiatives, organizations, and much more. Students at the
University of Miami are given numerous opportunities to be a part of
something big and meaningful. The activities, organizations, and
initiatives a student chooses to be a part of tell a lot about that
student and of course helps in building their character.
Drew Cheskin,
an undergraduate student of the University of Miami on the Dean’s List,
is a student that has looked for opportunities to help others. He has
been part of some amazing initiatives and organizations.
For example, Drew Cheskin
helped organize with an officer of the University of the Miami police
department an on-campus two-week blood drive for Oneblood.org. He helped
One Bloodcollect blood, plasma, and platelets for the benefit of
patients suffering from COVID-19and for children suffering from cancer.
His efforts helped OneBloodcollect over 200 units of blood, which could
save more than 500 lives.
Drew Cheskin
has been a counselor at children’s theatre camp, where he worked with
the camp artists' staff, supervised the campers from age 6 to 11, and
also assisted them with the rehearsals and production of Madagascar, A
Musical Adventure, Jr. He was also a mentor at shake-a-leg Miami summer
camp. There he worked with children having neuro typical disabilities.
Drew Cheskin was given the responsibility of taking groups of campers to
a sandbar in an outrigger boat and he led them in arts and crafts
activities.
He also was among only 32 students selected
nationally to participate in the HNBF Future Latino Leaders Law
Institute where he was a member of the winning team in a mock trial
competition that was presided by a Federal District Court Judge.
Drew Cheskin is a strong example for students that they do not have to
wait graduate to do good work for their community. Instead, they can be a
part of great initiatives, members of important organizations, and help
society get better. Students can do all of these things while pursuing
their studies, as Drew has done at the University of Miami.
