NSHSS Student Council 2007-08

We are pleased to introduce our Student Council members for the 2007-08 academic year. These outstanding college students give advice based on their own experiences and offer information on Society programs, scholarships, and activities throughout the upcoming year. Membership on the Student Council provides an important leadership opportunity beyond high school. Members graduating from high school in 2008 will be eligible to apply for next year's Council.  We are especially pleased to include a "senior council" of previous council members who are continuing to serve and provide advise to members as well as new council members. To contact a student council member, send your email message to studentcouncil@nshss.org and be sure to include the council member's name in the subject line of the email message.

Council Member

Julie Dunlap
Antioch, TN
Vanderbilt University

Julie interned at Vanderbilt University Center for Medical Research studying cures for multiple sclerosis, and plans to attend medical school in the future.  She held a number of leadership positions in school, including mentoring a local teen help group on issues of alcohol, drug, and sexual abuses.  She herself has succeeded  in rising above difficult circumstances through hard work and dedication.

Julie quotes William G. Bennis, "Leadership is the capacity to translate vision into reality," adding, "I know I can grow as a person from serving on the Student Council, and will do all it takes to help in the growth of NSHSS as well."
