mse agm campaign

It's almost the start of another wonderful academic year at NUS, and now, do take a moment to look back and reflect upon what you've done in your college life so far. (For fresh blood, think about the 7 months since A levels/2 years of NS).

Have you been part of something and served selflessly? Have you experienced the kind of camaraderie that can only surface with people whom you've worked closely with for the past 1 year? Have you worked towards a goal, that is not just for your own gain? Have you been part of something great?

If yes, you would know that sense of achievement and fulfilment I'm talking about. For the No-group, haven't you wondered what is it that drives people to take up leadership?

And why? Take a look below. (No harm, really!)

We experienced what it was like to do business, selling the MSE shirts to raise club funds. We liased with printing companies, dealt with screw-ups, and emerged more tactful than before.

We had our annual big event, The 1.5k Event, where the whole MSE family (staff, alumni, undergraduates) got together for a night of bonding and fun.

We welcomed freshmen and overseas visitors alike. We let them know what it's like being in MSE, how we are proud to be in MSE and why MSE will always be a part of us wherever we go.

For Sem 2, we started out with a goal. We wanted the best for our fellow undergraduates, and we worked to present you, the first ever, MSE Welfare Pack:

Even though they say 'MSE is so small,' but I know we're all big hearts, able to understand and acknowledge the needs and problems of students nowadays. We rise up to challenges, we conquer problems and we are all born leaders.

So come on, take up the challenge. Break the monotony of your mundane school life (lecture-tutorial-lab-lecture-tutorial-lab) and be different. Stop muddling through life and unleash your full potential. What sets you apart, is your attitude towards trials, not just academic progress.

I know this sounds really serious and all, but this, is what I leave you. Do you want to be a nobody; a face in the crowd, or someone the crowd faces? (Yes, borrowed from SCGS).

The choice is yours.

The only real training for leadership is leadership.
