2023年 Hardin-Simmons University 首页coming 王 is senior Zorian伯利. 原来增加 from Red Oak, Texas, he will graduate in May with a major in English and a minor in writing.
Zorian is active in many parts of Hardin-Simmons University: he is the President of HSU Proven, Vice President of Zeta Omega Phi, Co-Director for Freshman Sing, part of the track team and cheer team, and has been an HSU Wrangler for three years.
He wants to credit Thomas Myers, 扎克一, and Javarian Belcha for being his best friends, major motivators in his life, and positive male influences. 最重要的是, he would like to credit his mother: “She showed me what it means to push through so much with so little given to her.”
Zorian loves the community on campus and helping those in need; in particular, he enjoys working with first-year students. He also shared that he admires that all the staff, including the president and vice presidents, walk among the students and are open to talking to them. “No one at HSU will tear you down without building you up.” He adds that he loves the presence of Christ on campus, which he feels within the community.
幽默, he had been mistakenly nominated for 首页coming 王 last year and had to take himself off the ballot since he was a junior at the time. Having gained the drive to become 首页coming 王 this year, he was glad that he could accomplish this goal.
His fondest memories of HSU are taking part in HSU Stampede, becoming 首页coming 王, and helping first-year students get their bearings on campus through his work as a Wrangler. What he would like to remember most, 然而, is that HSU is a community of love and that he will always have a home on campus even after he becomes an alumnus.
