- A range of disciplinary interests (Sciences, Arts & Humanities, Social Sciences, Health, Business, Law, Education, etc.).
- Varied academic journeys and CÉGEP programs.
- Multiple forms of community involvement and leadership.
- Different relationships to Black identity, culture, and community.
- A mix of personality types: introverts, extroverts, quiet and vocal leaders.
- Students at different points in their sense of direction: some still exploring, some with clear goals.
