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 Syed "Hammad" Shabbir Robbinsville, NJ (orig. Pakistan) University of Michigan Hammad came to the U.S. from Pakistan three years ago, a change he found bewildering at first before quickly adapting.  He immersed himself in creative writing and community service and received the Edward J. Bloustein Distinguished Scholar Award, as well leading his school's Cricket Club. “All the support, information, resources, and networking though NSHSS have helped me through course selection, standardized tests, and finally the college application process. I have developed communication skills as a peer leader, tutor, and cricket instructor.  I knowledge I have gained help me serve other students.”
