Humans of Telfer - Samuel

“I became a Telfer student over a year ago. During my first year, my main goal was to meet new people, focus on my studies, etc. In my second year, however, I started getting involved with the Telfer Student Council and various Telfer clubs, and assimilating further the content of my courses. This is what I would call “the Telfer experience”. I think we should all remain open to the various opportunities offered to us.

Initially, I wanted to study Law. However, after participating to the Place à la jeunesse competition and finishing first in the Marketing category with my teammates, it became clear to me that Telfer was the obvious choice.

I deeply envy those who had the chance to live such beautiful experiences during their first year.

It was not the case for me. This is why, as the incoming Vice-president of Marketing at the Telfer Student Council, I wish to make it possible for all students to get engaged right at the beginning of their studies at Telfer. And I intend to achieve this through my upcoming integration ideas. ”

– Samuel Benhamou, incoming Vice-president of Marketing, Telfer Student Council
