Minors:  Legal Studies, Business, Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Quote from Nominator:
Nominated by five of his fellow students, who had great things to say about him, including: “Paul is without a doubt the most positive uplifting person I have met on the NJIT campus. He consistently demonstrates initiative but also puts forth the brighter side of NJIT life. It is no secret that NJIT is academically challenging and this can be less than motivating at times. Paul has gone out of his way with no benefit towards himself to help out his fellow students.”

Katie Demottie
Double Major:  History and Law, Technology, and Culture (LTC)

She made settling into my major a whole lot easier and I really appreciate her for that. I think every LTC freshman should talk to her.  She’s Vice President of the Pre-Law Society this year.”

Alahna Diaz
Double Major:  Biology and Law, Technology, and Culture (LTC)
