I forgot, but I\u2019m back!<\/p>\n
Well, its been a while since I\u2019ve blogged about my internship and believe me every week I intended to update you all on my process, but time gets away from me. Anyway, this semester started out slow and steady, and I loved every bit of it; but in true Stetson form the pressure has hit and I must deliver. Over the past 2 months I\u2019ve been meeting with professors to get information and footage on Stetson\u2019s Honors and SPREES program, and with my schedule stretched thin, I must say it\u2019s been a journey. Anxiety has gotten the best of me and I have moments of asking \u201cwhy did I sign up for this?\u201d Nevertheless, I keep going and find out interesting details each time.<\/p>\n
The Honor\u2019s and SPREES program at Stetson are one of a kind, and to hear professors and students speak on the development of them truly intrigued me. I\u2019ve been apart of Stetson\u2019s community since 2014 and I had no clue what the SPREES program was and how it prepares students for great careers within the government and classified positions. I remember walking into the SPREES exhibit and watching students study and tutor one another in the Russian Language, and it made me realize how privilege we are as students that faculty want to see us truly succeed in various areas. \u00a0One thing Dr. Mayhill said to me was \u201cwe want our students to leave\u201d, meaning get the education they need to go off into other parts of the world to as successful as possible. Some of the greatest careers are missed because we sometimes dismiss the small details.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve been in awe of how all areas of this great university prepares students and faculty for greater success. No one believes in passing you along if you don\u2019t do the work, and sometimes that can be frustrating, but it brings out the best in you. I don\u2019t really have much more to say in this blog post but that I\u2019m ecstatic to watch myself and others pursue their education with passion.<\/p>\n
