I explored new interests through the controversial topics from SDGs from the weekly SOS meeting. Also, I learned to think about problem-solving and synthesize complex ideas by participating in the debates.

It was a great opportunity to learn others' perspectives about social issues. In the conversation, the most important part is listening to other people’s opinions and respecting them. There could be different thoughts and ideas but there are no wrong ideas.

We organized events to promote awareness of sustainable development and raised funds by selling Dalgona. Moreover, the debates allowed us to explore critical global issues and foster meaningful discussions among members. These efforts not only enhanced our understanding of the SDGs but also strengthened our sense of teamwork and community impact.

Through SOS, SDGs were more deeply in our lives than I thought, and it was an experience to learn how I could help others more in this society.

Participating in SOS gave me a valuable opportunity to explore the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) beyond the classroom. By learning about sustainability initiatives and real-world examples, I reflected on goals like environmental conservation and reducing inequality. We also discovered university-led activities, such as Student Farm volunteering and SDG conferences, which helped me connect with like-minded individuals and build a sense of community. Additionally, networking with Penn State alumni and SOS members provided valuable insights to guide my future plans in sustainability.

When we got our presentation assignment, I felt burdened by the pressure of my doubt of my presentation skill. However, as I worked with my team members, I slowly gained confidence. What stood out the most for me was the opportunity that I can truly understand the concept of sustainability. Throughout this semester, I was able to learn a lot through various activities and am truly grateful to have worked with my club members.
