CYBER MALL n FROM PAGE 1 ton—and that is only one of many of her responsibilities. “I’ve been the adviser [for the program] for just a year, and there’s still so much I’m learning. It was something added to my position last April, and it unfortunately doesn’t get as much time as it really needs
as there’s so much growth potential for it,” said Thornton. Lately, however, students have taken the lead in developing the program. Vared spoke fondly of a recent gathering of all the student business owners at the University, and the feeling of camaraderie among
the attendees. “I think there’s a lot of exciting ideas going on, [and] the business leaders are becoming more unified,” said Vared. “It’s a very exciting time for entrepreneurship in general at Wash. U., and especially for the student entrepreneurs on campus.”
TRUMAN SCHOLAR n FROM PAGE 1 said Kleinman. “We work with them in high school and try to give them the wherewithal to achieve their academic potential and pursue education after high school.” Kleinman’s interests lie not only with helping children. She also helps the community by working with adults, specifically with abused women and children as well as with men who batter women. “It’s been an eye-opening
experience,” she said. After graduation, Kleinman intends to pursue a career in public policy, specifically with regard to reform in education and the criminal justice system. “I would like to enter the realm of government through the court system,” said Kleinman. “At some point in my career as a public servant I hope to be a judge. Ultimately, I hope to be an elected official, working to promote
widespread social change,” said Kleinman. Kleinman feels honored to have been selected as a Truman scholar. “Any feelings of pride I have are secondary to inspiration,” she said. “Being considered among such amazing students who are genuinely motivated to make the world better inspires me to work even harder because I know we are all working together.”
