STUDENT NEWSLETTER

In the light of FCOM's videowall, we put ourselves in the shoes of Sofía Iglesias, 4th year Marketing student, Mexican, fan of pizza with pineapple, Real Madrid and slow mornings.

Sofia is one of Tantaka's ambassadors since the 1st of degree program "to create a more supportive community". In addition to hobbies such as hiking or running, Sofia adds that of collaborating, since in addition to serving others, her participation in different volunteer work has taught her to "get out of myself and see the world for real, what is needed".

Next September 24 we will see you with the staff t-shirt of Solidariun, the solidarity fair of the University. More than 50 NGOs will present their work to the students.

1. What does it mean to be a Tantaka ambassador?
We connect students with the different volunteer programs. Many times students do not participate in the initiatives that exist because we do not know where to start, so the ambassadors serve as a bridge to inform them on how to collaborate with others.

2. What is the teaching most valuable thing you have gained from your work at Tantaka?
Tantaka has played a very special role in my college life: it has taken me out of my comfort zone and helped me to think more about others.

3. Your biggest fear?
Wasps.

4. What time of the day do you prefer?
I am a morning person. I like to have breakfast, do some exercise and go home. I love the slow morning.

5. Favorite food?
Chilaquiles. It's a very Mexican food: it has tortilla chips, salsa and chicken.

6. Song that makes you dance?
I love the one from OA.

7. What other degree program would you have liked to study?
International Relations was very appealing to me.

8. A superpower?
Teleporting. Then I wouldn't waste so much time walking around.

Pizza with or without pineapple?
I'm team with.

10. The best thing about your country?
The people, the music and the culture. All of them.

11. The university is...?
Unbelievable.
