Amber Norwood: Orientation and Events - Week 6

Activities:


  • Reflected on practicum experience
  • Met with supervisor
Experience:

     I keep thinking back on my practicum experience and how much I enjoyed it. I had a great supervisor and was able to get a wide variety of experiences throughout the month. However, what it really had me thinking about is what area of student affairs I really want to begin my career in. I came into SA thinking that orientation was an area I really wanted to pursue. After working in it for a month, I still believe that I would like to work in Orientation; but now there are many more areas that are catching my attention. 
     Some times this ambiguity scares me, and other times I find it exciting. I do believe I would like to find a "mentor", because that is seeming to become more and more important as I grow in the profession.

  2. Amber, this post is interesting to me because I am also interested in the many areas that student affairs has to offer. It sounds like you are slowly beginning the process of narrowing down your field of interest. How can you pinpoint your desired job even more as you go into this second, final year of classes?
