Class of 2028

Passionate leader ready to tackle student concerns, spark campus vibes, and make DKU brighter for all!

Hello everyone! I’m Yifan, a passionate and driven student from the Class of 2028. My journey so far has been shaped by a dedication to making a positive impact, both in my community and beyond. Whether it’s organizing events in high school alongside my homeroom teacher or collaborating with local organizations on meaningful projects, I’ve cultivated a deep appreciation for teamwork, advocacy, and leadership. The Student Leaders Board (SLB) resonates with my belief in creating inclusive and supportive communities. By serving on the SLB, I want to address the diverse needs of my peers, ensuring every student feels heard and valued. I am especially interested in working within the Intercultural Engagement, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee to promote cross-cultural understanding and celebrate the vibrant diversity of DKU’s campus. If selected, I aim to enhance communication between students and university leadership, advocate for initiatives that prioritize mental health and student well-being, and collaborate on programs that empower students to engage with their community meaningfully. My experience in event planning and my background in social initiatives equip me to bring creative and practical solutions to campus challenges. I’m eager to contribute my skills, ideas, and enthusiasm to foster a campus environment where every student thrives academically, socially, and emotionally. Together, we can create a stronger, more connected DKU community.
