    Nosimat Salami '24

    Hey everyone, my name is Nosimat Salami and I am a current senior at Gettysburg College from Queens, NY. At Gburg, I am a Health Science and Public Policy double major and an Educational Studies minor, with a focus in Public and Global Health. I aspire to one day help underdeveloped and underprivileged communities worldwide to seek social change! As a first-generation student in a Nigerian household, my college experience has been an interesting journey, academically and socially. My hopes are to share my experiences and help you navigate the transition from high school to college, as I was in your shoes three years ago. Outside of academics, I am a Program Coordinator for Center for Public Service, a student worker for OSAGAL, and as a student assistant for OME. I also love skateboarding, drawing, and binge-watching drama films!

    Julian Coley '25

    What’s good everybody! My name is Julian Coley and I am a Sophomore from the Bronx, NY. I am a double major in International Affairs and Public Policy. Aside from being a Multicultural Ambassador I am a founding member of The Caribbean Club, I coordinate service and social events for the Black Student Union, and I am the Treasurer of the Fellaship which is a club that aims to provide support for POC men on campus.  In my free time you can catch me playing on Intramural sports teams like Basketball and Football. I am a big foodie, so I’ll let you know all the good spots to eat around town. I cannot wait to interact with you all and help with your transition on campus.

    Hi everyone! I’m Jacqueline Piña Perez, a Senior Mathematics major and Economics minor here at Gettysburg. I am a first-generation Latina from Chicago, Illinois.
