Description

President Sue Thomas welcome Star Alexander for this episode of “Tea Time with Sue.”

A junior psychology major from St. Charles, Mo., Star is active in Phi Sigma Pi and Psi Chi. They have also served the University as a student ambassador and a visit host. This summer will mark their third time serving as an orientation leader. Star shared how they enjoy helping new students start their Truman careers, and they particularly enjoyed working with the commuter students last fall when the team took first place in Truman Week College Cup Challenge.

During the course of the conversation, Star also discussed their psychology research on overthinking in academia, as well as their love of reality television shows and how their ability to imitate Toad from the Mario franchise helped win a karaoke contest.

Throughout the school year, President Thomas will welcome guests for one-on-one chats that shine a light on the people and things that make Truman the special place it is. Guests for “Tea Time with Sue” can be nominated at truman.edu/teatime.
