Alumni Profile - Lynda Lichti '12
Did you pursue further academic goals?
"I will be enrolling in West Chester University this fall and plan to pursue a Master's Degree in Psychology with a Communications Minor."
Where are you now? What are you doing?
"While I have received many awards over the last few months, I am most proud to be one of only two students from the College named to the All-Pennsylvania Academic Team, which includes a full scholarship to any of the state's 14 universities."
What is next for you professionally?
"I am working with several members of Phi Theta Kappa, including my fellow graduates Steffi Reinstein and Elisa Ford,听to start an alumni chapter at the College. This chapter will be part of the larger alumni association beginning in the fall. Our goal is to help current students gain the most from their experience within Phi Theta Kappa as well as help raise the profile of our chapter to the next level in healthy academic competition! If you are a present or past member of Phi Theta Kappa and would like to get involved, please let us know by sending an email to alumni@dccc.edu as we get organized during the summer months."
What advice do you have for your fellow alumni or current students from the College?
"For Students: Make friends and mentors. Get involved and be willing to do more than your share of the work and expect less than your share of the credit. Humility goes a long way. If you haven't found your dream job or have doubts, don't give up."
"For Alumni: Be proud of where you came from and stay in touch with your school and the Alumni Association. They can still help you, and current students will need your help. Remember your humble beginnings and give back to those who are walking the path you once did as strong, dedicated leaders who are willing to work hard to prove themselves."
"For everyone: A willingness to work, to be of service to help, to be positive and set a good example are some of the qualities that grow inside leaders. Strive to be that kind of person and you will fully capitalize on your education."
"In closing, congratulations to my fellow graduates and thank you to all who have contributed to my successes while taking classes at the College."
