"The University of Ghana has always been my aspiration, and being there feels surreal. I was eager to contribute in any way possible. In my first year, I supported and sponsored some Hall Week celebrations and collaborated with the SRC for Evandy Hall Week. Bringing Mister Drew was a highlight," he shared.

Guru also shed light on his motivations for pursuing higher education, attributing his decision to pandemic-induced boredom and his mother's encouragement to complete his degree.

Initially enrolling in a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, he later switched to Political Science and Information Studies, aiming to apply his expertise on a global scale, particularly with aspirations to work with the United Nations.

"After the onset of COVID, I felt a sense of ennui. So I thought, 'Why not delve into academics?' My mother has always emphasized the importance of education, urging me to complete my degree.

Thus, I enrolled at the University of Ghana, initially studying Information Technology. Later, I switched to Political Science and Information Studies. My ultimate goal is to make a difference on a global platform, particularly by working with the UN," Guru explained.
