Maybe you know him, maybe you don't, but Mike Fazzino has probably impacted you in some way.
Have you ever been to a comedian in the outpost? Gone to a movie on campus? Gotten a ONE campaign e-mail?
Fazzino is a sophomore with a long list of accomplishments. He is the entertainment committee chair for SET, president of the Sacred Heart chapter of the ONE campaign, a peer mentor and an active member of Habitat for Humanity.
"I have known Mike since his first semester freshman year. He is extremely hardworking and always willing to help others. He puts others before himself and he's a lot of fun," said senior Kelly Linskey, Vice President of SET.
"He's accomplished so much in the short time he's been here, we expect to see a lot more great things from him."
Fazzino is almost single-handedly responsible for making Sacred Heart the number one college on the list of schools who take part in the ONE campaign.
The ONE main Web site states, "ONE is Americans of all beliefs and every walk of life - united as ONE - to help make poverty history. As ONE, we are raising public awareness about the issues of global poverty, hunger, disease and efforts to fight such problems in the world's poorest countries."
As president, Fazzino has led Sacred Heart to the number one spot of colleges and universities making an effort to support ONE's cause.
"I think that I have the ability to help people by giving back and I have the time and resources to do that at SHU," said Fazzino.
As the entertainment chair for SET, it is Fazzino's job to bring movies and comedians to campus.
"He's a phenomenal guy that works very hard to bring great comedians and movies to our campus that everyone enjoys. I think a lot of people would drop anything to help him," said junior Katie Lopes, charity committee chair for SET.
"He's a good person. It's amazing that he has time to do everything he does."
Fazzino believes that there are a few keys to success, and being motivated is one of them.
