When I wrote the draft for our mayfield project I envisioned ten enthusiastic individuals who had sincere intentions of looking deep within others, who were different than they were, and see a personality, not a malfunction. I was hoping that this would lead us to look at each other, and see personalities, not break into cliques. I was also hoping that we would look within ourselves, and be able to change Vanderbilt's campus, because we had changed as individuals. It wouldn't matter what fraternity or sorority someone was apart of, it wouldn't matter what major someone was in, it wouldn't matter what others wore, or what their religious beliefs are. I guess it was easy to sell an idea where everyone saw the perks, whether it was the single, the location on highland quad, or the ability to live right across from their best friend. I didn't realize that it's a lot harder to sell a vision; to have nine other people share your vision. honestly, the perks aren't worth it if I can't fulfill the mission that I set out to do. I don't need to be rewarded in any manner or receive a grade to put 100% effort towards any and everything I'm working towards. If I sound a lot aggressive it's because I am. Nothing is accomplished by sitting around and doing nothing, I realized that the day I decided to contact Harris Hillman.
