Introducing the Fall 2024 Student Ambassador Team

The Department of Sociology and Anthropology’s Student Ambassador program is a team of undergraduate student volunteers who help with student activities, new student recruitment, Department communications (newsletter), student involvement and student mentorship through the Student Connections program. Each student in the Department is paired with a Student Ambassador from the time they enroll at NC State until graduation. Stephanie Jares, the Director of Undergraduate Advising for the Department of Sociology and Anthropology is the Director of the Student Ambassador Team.  The Team was founded by Ms. Jares in February of 2020. In the Spring of 2022, the Student Ambassador Team was nominated for the NC State Chancellor’s Creating Community Award. 

Student ambassadors receive special recognition during graduation — an honor cord to thank them for their hard work and dedication to the Department of Sociology and Anthropology. 

Students may apply to be a student ambassador if they have completed at least one semester at NC State and at least one semester in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology, have an overall and major GPA of 2..5 and have a letter of recommendation from a current student ambassador or instructor in the department.
