JAG Social Media Student Managers Kaydence Jones & Marion-Maria Haff The JAG National Student Leadership Academy (NSLA) has come to an end. At this event, students were able to learn leadership skills from the JAG National Career Officers: President Kira, Parliamentarian Seth, Secretary Jenna, and President Elect Frida, along with the outstanding hosts: Amy and Briant! They shared with the students networking, how to properly greet someone, advocacy with corporate partners, and many more leadership skills. JAG students also got to go on tours; visit important monuments and memorials, the Chaos event, and Winter Wonderland Dance. JAG NH students also had the opportunity to meet with Congressman Chris Pappas on Hill Day! Students were able to meet him and get to know more about what it is like to work in Washington, D.C. JAG - NH is so grateful for the opportunity to meet him and his staffers. This NSLA event was a great way for young JAG NH members to make new connections and meet other students from other states. It was well planned and thoughtful! Students not only learned but also experienced a great time. Students from JAG - NH @ MST attended a field trip to the ApprenticeshipNH Summit at NHTI on 11/17/23.
