Why did you join KKPsi or what drew you KKPsi? – "I was originally drawn to KKPsi because people in my section told me that I would be a good fit for an honorary band fraternity which is something that I didn’t think I would be good enough for at the time. When I saw the opportunity to join an organization of people that all loved the same things I did in addition to also bettering the band program it was an easy choice to make."
What positions or responsibilities did you hold in your chapter? – "In my chapter I held the position of Parliamentarian. It was the one position I held within the chapter but I also served as NCD Vice President of Programs."
Name a favorite memory from your Active membership. – "One of my favorite memories would have to be my first National Convention in Lexington, Kentucky in 2015. It was an eye-opening experience to get to see how much the fraternity does on a national level. It gave me perspective on how much we really do for the band program. I also got to meet so many different brothers and sisters that I now have the pleasure of working with today. (Shameless Plug: Go to NatCon 2019 on July 16-20 and celebrate KKPsi’s centennial, it will be really fun!)"
How has KKPsi helped you in the "real world"? (professionally or personally, or both) – "Currently, it has helped with almost everything as CFR. It has also taught me how I want to present myself as a professional and how to effectively communicate my message to people I talk to whether it be brothers or anyone outside of the organization. It taught me to be passionate about everything that I do."
What are you most looking forward to as a member of the NCDAA? - "I looking forward to getting to know many brothers from the NCD that are still just as passionate about Kappa Kappa Psi as they were when they were an active member."
Name one thing you want to get out of the NCDAA. – "I would want to forge new bonds with alumni that I didn’t have the opportunity to meet while I was Active."
Name any of your personal social media accounts that you would like people to connect with you. – "Add me on Facebook or on Twitter @jstnjensen13."
