I can't seem to get away from this place!

   So I'm going to talk about my organization and how my internship happened by chance. Before I accepted a full-time job with the university I was a student worker in the Office of the Dean for the College of Public Service & Community Solutions. I also taught a section of ASU101 in the fall of 2014 and an online section in the spring of 2015. My supervisor at the time asked if I would be interested in creating the curriculum for the course for the fall 2015 because she knows how interested I am in becoming a professor. So the conversation then became can it be used as my internship. The answer was yes and it grew from there. So when I say I can't get away from this place it is by choice.

   Arizona State University is at the cutting edge of innovation and a world class leader among higher education public research institutions. It was founded in 1885 as the Tempe Normal School and it hasn’t looked back. The University has experienced massive growth over the years and under the leadership of its current president, Michael Crow, ASU has transcended the boundaries of a traditional public university to what is referred to as a knowledge enterprise.

   Specifically I work, now full-time, and intern in the College of Public Service & Community Solutions where I support the functions of Academic & Student Affairs. Our dean, Jonathan Koppell, has led a massive transformation and advance of the mission our college delivers on. It is a very inspiring place to work and so it was a simple decision to intern here. The responsibility of my internship is to coordinate 15 sections of ASU101 for our freshman class that delivers on the expectations of both the university at large and our college.
