Malcolm McDaniel
Assistant Director, OFSA
Hometown: Queens Village, New York
Educational Background:
B.S. in Speech Language Pathology and Audiology from Long Island
University, Post Campus.
M.S. Ed. in Higher Education Leadership and
Policy Studies at Hofstra University
Affiliation: Latino America Unida/Lambda Alpha Upsilon Fraternity, Inc.
Professional Highlights:
Being both a Fraternity and Sorority Life Graduate Assistant at both
Hofstra University and The New York Institute of Technology-Old Westbury
Campus in the same year!
Why did you decide to pursue a career in Fraternity and Sorority Affairs:
Going through the expansion process to join my organization, I saw that
there were differences in the way my campus was bringing IFC and
Panhellenic organizations vs Culturally based groups. I wanted to
understand why that was, learn what goes into advising Fraternities and
Sororities, as well as be a supporter and advocate for Cultural Greek
Lettered Organizations.
What do you hope to do during your time at Lehigh University:
Besides enhancing the Fraternity and Sorority Life community here, I've
quickly learned that Lehigh is a place with so much tradition that I
want to learn and understand. I also hope that I am able to make a long
lasting impact here in whatever form that may look like!
What has been your impression of the Lehigh Greek Community so far:
There's so many members!! Haha. But so far everyone that I have had
interactions with are friendly, welcoming, and inquisitive in learning
more about myself as well as my fellow ADs. They're also very smart and
do a lot of internships both nationally and internationally (which is
way more than I ever did)
