• Hired Student Staff Leader- First Year Student Outreach Projects 25, 26, & 27

  • Apr 2015 - Aug 2017

  I have been hired as a staff leader for the First Year Student Outreach Project three times during by time at BU. Each time I had to apply, and be interviewed, both in group and individual settings. In 2015, as a sophomore, I was hired to be part of the Environment focus area's staff team. My responsibilities included: summer research & video conferences with coordinators, returning to BU two weeks prior to the Fall semester, one week of intensive educational and leadership training, and one week of leading a group of 15 first years (with two fellow staff members). Throughout our time engaging with the program, we focused on learning about local issues and efforts pertaining to the Environment & conservation. Then, we did days of service with local community partners that related to our focus area. We did, also, do as much intersectional learning as we had time to. I had the same responsibilities when hired as a Public Health Staff, but pertaining to issues and efforts in the Public Health field. This year, however, the process was much different. Show less
