I think I am most proud of getting Camp Kesem from a small student org of 15 people to over 50 in four short years.

As CGS students know, sophomore year is when you decide what school\/college you are going to enter and I felt like I was torn between choosing a career path that would make money and one that would make me happy\/play off of my strengths. After vocalizing this to Dean Godnick (my advisor at the time), I started sobbing about my future and had a bit of a breakdown (as many of us do when thinking about the future). She immediately got up, gave me a hug, and told me that I would be successful in whatever I pursued, as long as I was playing on my strengths and doing something I was passionate about. This moment shaped the rest of my college experience, the way I view my career and aspirations, and made me realize how important it is to look to do something you love. I owe this mentality to Dean Godnick. She is such a crucial part to how my college experience played out. In writing this, I just want to thank her for the role she played in who I am and who I grew to be. Not many people are as lucky as I am to have had such a caring and wonderful college advisor and I just wanted to write this to vocalize my gratitude for the work Dean Godnick does. So to Dean Godnick I say: thank you. You are impacting so many lives in such a positive way and that deserves so much recognition :)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-43234 alignleft\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-686x1024.jpg 686w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-768x1146.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-1029x1536.jpg 1029w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-1372x2048.jpg 1372w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky-755x1127.jpg 755w, https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/cgs\/files\/2021\/05\/IMG_4976-Ethan-Kolsky.jpg 1535w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/>Ethan Kolsky, CGS and COM, Advertising Major<\/h4>\n<p><strong>What student organizations have you been involved in?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Captain of Men&#8217;s Tennis Team<\/p>\n<p><strong>What have you done in your time at BU that you are most proud of?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Being named captain of the mens tennis team<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you have planned for the future?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Working in Burlington, Ma for Oracle in the fall.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your favorite memory of CGS?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Professor Chris Coffman had a big impact on my life whether he knows it or not.
