Cru at UW-Stout
I have been actively involved with Cru since my freshmen year of college. By my second semester, I was taking on some leadership roles, one of which was helping with the APP team. The APP team planned the activities that happen after Cru regular meetings on Thursday nights. At the start of my sophomore year, I was a Bible study helper in one of the dorms and also worked on the promo team. Shortly after the start of the semester I took on the task of getting T-shirts printed. I worked with an upperclassmen student in Cru who made the design and also with the Stout Typographical Society which printed the shirts.
Later on in the school year, a new leadership team formed in Stout Cru called the "faculty team," and I joined that group. The faculty team put on an event called the 5 Hopes for Humanity which was a panelist discussion time with members of different faiths. Each panelist had a set amount of time to talk about what they believed in, and then, the audience could text in questions that would be answered after each panelist spoke. There were actually six speakers, not five, consisting of Christian, Muslim, Atheist, Buddhist, Hindu, and the New Age Movement backgrounds. This event was an awesome opportunity to discover more about different faiths and to hear more about what they believe.
In my junior year of college, I was involved with the faculty and promo teams. I was heading up the shirt project again that year. I was the Vice President of Stout Cru also. The duties of VP included helping to lead leadership meetings and be a resource to other leaders.

The following document was created for my ePub class in May of 2016 that talks about many of my experiences in Cru:
