DANIEL FERNANDEZ Hometown: Chicago, IL College: College of Business Major: Undeclared What aspirations do you have for your Lehigh career and beyond? How has Lehigh impacted and/or reinforced those aspirations? In my first year, Lehigh gave me a new perspective of learning. Taking classes that are setting me up for my future is something I value. I enjoyed my classes this past year because most of them had something to do with my business major. I was also involved in clubs such as LUSSI and F1SRT. These programs guided me to becoming a better person and overall student because I saw firsthand how people from backgrounds similar to mine were able to achieve their goals at Lehigh. A message from Daniel: The difference you have made for my family and I simply cannot be put into words. The aid I receive is tremendous, and I will forever be thankful. Being a first-generation student, I know a college education will change my life, especially earning a degree from Lehigh University. Your generosity has had a great impact on me, and I strive so that one day I can also help people that come from similar backgrounds. Thank you. Honors and Involvement: Community Service Volunteer, Dean’s List, Lehigh University Student Scholars Institute (LUSSI) One thing on my Lehigh bucket list: Making the soccer team as a walk-on.
