Singal was a civic engineer working in one of the twin towers the day of the terrorist attack. After this traumatizing event, Singal switched career paths and now travels around the world speaking about goodness, spirituality, and kindness.

Last year Singal spoke at a CFC event and was invited again this year, along with the Be the Change Club. Singal tries to bring awareness to global issues pertaining to college students. He “wants to make students aware that there are bigger things happening and it’s very easy to fall into a bubble here on campus,” Erica Ferrara, junior geology and environmental sustainability major, and president of CFC said. Be the Change Club will jump on board naturally as a club that focuses on spreading positivity.
