For Tarika Sethi,
there’s
no such thing as too little time.
That’s why, during her
four years at Randolph College, she was involved in scores of
causes, including playing a leadership role in the development
of a program
to
combat alcohol use among youth.
Tarika’s generous spirit helps explain
why she was named as the winner of the Mary Jean Wellford ’48
Volunteer Leadership Award during the 2004 Commencement ceremony—and
why her next stop was the Peace Corps. |
