<\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nWith February being Black History Month, Major shared that BSU had a Family Feud event where students could compete against each other to see who knew the most about Black history.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe BSU, along with Student Engagement have done a Family Feud Night and we raised our BSU banner in the Union. We want to branch out this past February to show our culture, so we have some things planned for the rest of the semester,\u201d Major said.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another big part of Major\u2019s time at Fort Hays has been spent at the KFHS, the campus radio station. Through his time at KFHS he has built up the program and manages the station.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, I have been doing radio for 10 years so I am used to college life. I enjoy it because I use music as a mood adjuster and having that be part of my job helps me stay calm during stressful moments,\u201d Major said.

<\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nAnother important part of Major\u2019s college career has also been his time as an Emergency Responder. Through this experience, he has gained many leadership skills and ways to deal with stress.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cI would say my time as an Emergency responder has had more of an impact on my college career because of learning how to deal with stress. It taught me about teamwork and responsibility,\u201d Major said. \u201cThe skills I learned as an Emergency Responder has helped with many obstacles I have faced here in college.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\nMajor shares that what he is most passionate about in life is critical thinking and the art of a conversation.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cI am passionate about critical thinking, I find having conversations that are uncomfortable can help both parties become educated on topics they may be ignorant about,\u201d he said.
<\/p>\n\n\n\nFor Major, to be a Tiger is to be open to change and critically think.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cBeing a Tiger means having the ability to critically think and being open to change. Having passion and using that passion to bring people together,\u201d Major said. \u201cThat’s what I think it means to be a Tiger.\u201d
