Welcome to the Hudson Global Scholars Online Community. My name is Rukayat (Ruka) Olunlade, and I am the University Advisor and Community Engagement Manager.

About me

I was born and raised in Nigeria but currently live in the United States. I have a Bachelor's in Psychology and a Master's in Education. When I am not at work or school, you can find me running on my favorite trail, training for a marathon, or sleeping at odd hours.

Fun fact: I used to be a competitive eater, and a lion once stole my shoes from me.

Welcome

I am excited to welcome you to our exciting and engaging online community. This community is more than an online space but a chance to explore an incredible global network of Hudson Global Scholars students like yourself. We believe in the power of community and connection and are excited to have you join us.

As you embark on your journey with us, here are a few tips to make the most of your time

Participate actively - Sign up for clubs, events, meetings, and webinars. Ask questions and share your insight because there is no commUnity without U.
Connect with others - Whether through our WhatsApp chat, social media, or just reading student spotlights, connect with other students and expand your network.
Follow our guidelines - You can find our community guidelines in your student handbook and here. It is important to follow the guidelines to create a respectful and friendly community.

My team at Hudson Global Scholars and I are so excited to have you join our community. If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to reach out. Welcome again, and we can't wait to see the incredible contributions and connections you'll bring.

Ruka
