I learned more about U of T\u2019s campus in\u00a0five minutes than I have over the last year of being an OISE student here. A passionate advocate for post-secondary student issues on campus, Abdullah guarantees that U of T can be a really lovely place if you explore your passions and get involved. I believe it! Abdullah is this year\u2019s Community Crew Captain. You can find him on twitter @lifeatuoft<\/a>, and on Facebook at Life At U of T: St. George<\/a>.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nMelina \"\"<\/a><\/strong>\r\n\r\nMelina\u2019s upbeat energy is pretty contagious. Serious. You can\u2019t be around her for five minutes before you\u2019re grinning. Like from ear to ear. A fourth year Cinema Studies and Lit major, she\u2019s got giant passions for photography, ballet, and a vegan lifestyle. When she first came to meet me, she gingerly climbed the stairs at Koffler to where I was sitting. I\u2019m pretty sure she just wanted to tiptoe, but I could spot her distinctive style a mile away. Keep your eye on her photography skills: she\u2019s Life @ U of T\u2019s official Community Crew photographer, and she has quite the eye! Check out her pics on Twitter<\/a> and Instagram<\/a>!\r\n\r\nKatrina \"\"<\/a><\/strong>\r\n\r\nWhen you meet Katrina, you feel as though you\u2019ve known her for a long time. She\u2019s so comfortable with herself that you feel all comfy too, and you just relax. Truth. Go up and say hello to her, you\u2019ll see what I mean!\r\n\r\nSee?\r\nTold ya.\r\n\r\nKatrina joins us all the way from Hong Kong with her elegant sense of style and love for science. Intramural sports, meeting amazing people, and challenging herself to do better is what makes Katrina\u2019s world turn. She\u2019s a Life @ U of T blogger - watch for her posts starting next week!\r\n\r\nMichael<\/strong>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Michael is an Engineering student with a love for food truck fries and all things Theatre.\r\n\r\nSidenote: Who doesn\u2019t love food truck fries? You can stay away from them all you want, but you know you secretly love them :D.\r\n\r\nUm, anyway, back to Michael. U of T is huge, right? Huge - which got Michael feeling nervous about meeting people and making friends on campus at first. The complete opposite happened instead: Michael got overwhelmed by the sheer number of ways to participate in Life at U of T. These days, you can find Michael stretching his acting chops with an Improv club on campus. Just wait, maybe you\u2019ll catch him on stage at Hart House one of these days- just maybe. But first, you\u2019ll definitely find him on Twitter, @Michael_UofT<\/a>.\r\n\r\nStephen \"\"<\/a><\/strong>\r\nIf Stephen\u2019s wry, deadpan wit doesn\u2019t have you cracking up, well\u2026[insert witty comment here]. Stephen\u2019s strategy for getting to know U of T: Just Say Hi (see video below). You can find Stephen making his way around campus on his trusty bicycle, or chilling out at Knox College. A combination of Sketch Comedy talent and Diabolo\u2019s fantastic coffee make this guy who you want to keep your eye on for future Life\u00a0@ U of T blogposts.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nLast but not least,\u00a0a big\u00a0Hello<\/strong> from\u00a0your Community Crew:\r\n\r\nhttpv:\/\/youtu.be\/fwyoiZE4cKs<\/a>\r\n\r\nWelcome aboard everyone! I look forward to working with you!\r\n\r\n- Aziza","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
