“You’re Evolving!”

I decided to center this board on occupations and education, while keeping the Pokemon theme ongoing. For the top/beginning tier of sheets, I talked about different interests, and included a picture of a stage 1 versions of certain Pokemon. In the middle/intermediate tier of sheets, I included different types of education, i.e College of Engineering, Math, & Science; College of Business, Industry, Life Science, & Agriculture; College of Liberal Arts & Education; and non-traditional means of learning (all with different interests/majors linked to their specific categories). I touched on this last one because I felt that it was necessary to talk about how there are jobs that can come from education outside of a traditional 4-year degree program. This tier of sheets all had their respective stage 1 Pokemon’s evolutionary items, required to evolve them to their stage 2 forms present, except for the sheet on non-traditional means of learning. I felt as though the Pokemon linked to traditional learning should be ones with evolutionary items required, and the non-traditional would be a Pokemon that didn’t require an evolutionary item, this being indicative to the lack of necessity for a traditional degree for those with interests that would lead to non-traditional learning. For the lower/final tier of sheets, I had lists of possible jobs that could come from these different education types, plus the stage 2 versions of the used Pokemon. The title is in reference to the fact that we are all in that middle tier, all being affected by our choice in education, and all in the process of “evolving” into our career paths. Hopefully this board can be recognized for the hard work I put into researching for it.

Welcome Weekend: Saturday

Saturday of welcome weekend, new residents, a few resident assistants, and I all went to the Chancellor’s Convocation, then to a scavenger hunt downtown, and then a picnic dinner in City Park. Another RA and I thought it’d be a good idea to set an example of getting involved to residents, so we stayed there at convocation, then walked over to City Park to start the scavenger hunt with them. Once the scavenger hunt started I lead a group of a few RAs (from our building and others), our residents, and myself around, learning of businesses and different opportunities around town to get involved in. When we finished marking off all of the businesses and booths, we got in line for food and ate together at the picnic, waiting for rewards to be announced from the scavenger hunt.

Ten Theories that changed the world

Here is one of the new boards recently put up. For all of those engineering majors and anyone that just loves math, here are some of the many theories and equations that were derived form those theories which you use every day. Take a moment to read how they came about and their significance so that as your using them in your future careers you know their importance.
