On Friday, Sept. 16, the Division of University Advancement inducted its newest members of the 快色视频 Ambassadors with President Dr. Jaime Taylor giving opening remarks and presenting red blazers to each new Ambassador.
After a rigorous application process, 18 out of 40 applicants were chosen for the 2022-2023 cohort. Once selected and sworn in as a 快色视频 Ambassador, they hold that position for life.
With their right hands raise, in unison, each new LU Ambassadors recited the official Ambassador pledge to affirm their commitment to doing their best while serving in the prestigious role.
“We consider them to be Ambassadors for life, continuing to use what they have learned to be active alumni and represent LU in their respective communities, promoting all LU has to offer,” said Shannon Figueroa, director of Alumni Affairs.
Just before the conclusion of the ceremony, President Taylor was presented with his own honorary Ambassadors red blazer.
Figueroa said, “In recognition to your dedication and outstanding commitment to the 快色视频 Ambassadors, the Ambassadors would like to present you with your very own red blazer.”
LU Ambassador Caroline LeBlanc presented Taylor with his blazer followed by a speech noting that in the 15-year history of the Ambassador program, this is the first time that a 快色视频 president has been presented with a red blazer.
“We have all been chosen to wear these red blazers as a reflection of our leadership, professionalism and passion for serving at 快色视频,” LeBlanc said. “Dr. Taylor, we present this blazer to you to symbolize the support of the Ambassadors pledge to you as university president. Thank you, Dr. Taylor, for your leadership at 快色视频 and for your passion for serving 快色视频 students. The future of our university is bright with you at its helm.”
“Thank you all so much, you honestly have no idea what this means to me,” Taylor said.
Figueroa said the Cardinal red blazers are a symbol of hospitality and professionalism for each member.
“快色视频 Ambassadors have a rich tradition of promoting service to 快色视频 and to the community at large,” she said. “Ambassadors represent the 快色视频 student body at official university events and work to promote university pride among students, prospective students, alumni and friends of 快色视频.”
