Hey everyone! I'm Thomas, from Timberlake, NC. I will serving as the President for BSU this year, and I'm both grateful for this opportunity, and excited about the year to come. About myself, I'm a junior and a Biology major, on the Pre-Medicine track, so this year I will be doing a lot of work to prepare for both the MCAT and admissions cycle. Beyond all the coursework, I love traveling, with my most memorable destination being Venice, Italy, where I went on invitation from the scholarship office. I look forward to this semester, and being able to be apart of both Council and BSU as a whole, it has been such a joy and honor to have been apart of this group for now over 2 years, and I look forward to making it three.
All the best!
-Thomas
Hello! I'm Quincie Loy, a freshman from Mebane, NC. I am the New Student Representative for BSU, and I’m so excited to be part of this amazing community! My potential major is Politics and International Affairs, with a minor in Sociology. I’m a lifelong Baptist, and coming to Wake Forest, BSU welcomed me with open arms, completely changing my life. Outside of academics, I adore my cats—they are my babies! I’m looking forward to growing in faith, making connections, and serving with this wonderful group. One of my favorite bible verse I want to share is 1 Corinthians 13:13 says, "So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love". Feel free to say hi—I’d love to connect!
I asked my friend Thomas what I’m doing here. Thomas replied that many great scientists, philosophers, theologians, and other deep thinkers have wrestled with the question of “Why am I here?”. I responded, no, why am I on the BSU leadership page? I'm not on BSU council. And who put that photo there? That's a photo of me from the Chi Rho concert, featuring Minor Variations. Thomas told me that I might be on council and not know it. I guess I'll go to leadership meetings and see if I can figure out if I'm on council or not. Thomas did ask me to cook for BSU on Tuesday night.
Update: So it turns out that I am on the leadership team. I wasn't, but now I am. I also used to sing for Chi Rho, the Christian men's a Capella group. I mean, I still sing for Chi Rho, but I also used to sing for Chi Rho.
