It teaches you about friend-ship, working together and having fun.Jake: SAB to me is a collaboration of students working together to promote and participate in events around campus.How has it affected your life through your involvement this past semester?Karan: When I first came to the Lone Star campus, I didn’t really know what to expect.

SAB really helped me with boosting my confidence lev-el. I am not that shy person anymore.Jake: SAB has greatly affected my college experience this past semester. I have made so many amazing new friends and I found that I truly have friends who will help and support me with anything I need.What is an upcoming event that you’re excited about?Karan: All the events are so fun, but I can’t wait until the Bayou Bash (Spring Fling)!Jake: SPRING FLING!!!
