In a most recent Q&A video session with Dr. Kimberly Howard and Dr. Chong Park, they touch upon the Center’s impact and what they enjoy most about BU Wheelock CFR. Dr. Howard states, “We created our center because we know that educators, parents, and counselors are looking for information and resources they can use as they are supporting the positive career and future readiness of their students. The center provides them with not only reports of our research, but more importantly for them we provide links to activities and lessons, as well as short articles and blogs specifically to provide guidance in their efforts.” From Dr. Park’s perspective, “I think that the Center plays an important role in connecting across different systems. Not only are we working with individual students for their career development and educators who can support the students, we collaborate with school districts, community organizations, state leaders, government agencies, and researchers across the globe. So I think the collaboration across the system levels is what makes the Center really unique.” As for BU Wheelock CFR, Dr. Howard and Dr. Park would like you all to know that whether you’re a student, parent, educator, or employer, there is always a significant role you can play in career development and future readiness. As always, to find out how the Center can help you, check out our website or contact us on any of our social media platforms. IG: @bostonucfr TikTok:@bostonucfr Twitter: @futurereadiness

9.9 What are we doing here? If you, like I wrote about last week, have an important reason for being here, that means everyone else here does as well. Everyone you come across today–students, faculty, staff, all of us–has an important reason for being at DePauw, something meaningful that’s motivating them to show up. And many of those are different. We all come to DePauw with different points of view, different motivations, different things we’re trying to achieve. We have different values, different goals, different thoughts on what it takes to make this place–and ourselves–the best. That’s the whole point. You’re here not just because of what you can accomplish for yourself, you’re here because of the community you can help us to build. You’re here because someone else needs to hear what you have to say, and because you need to learn what they know. We all make up DePauw, and that learning from each other along with sharing our own experiences and values is why we come together. So share what you know, who you are, and then listen and make space for others to do the same. My hope for you this week is that you help someone else know that they belong, and so make the DePauw community a little richer. ***Every week when classes are in session I send a note to the DePauw student community. This was this week's.***

Looking back on my previous work sometimes makes me cringe, because I often find the areas where I think I could have done better... but sometimes it makes me super proud of what we achieved and it brings back all the amazing memories of working together with a fantastic team (made of Electric Kite and Forsyth Technical Community College beautiful people). I enjoyed this project so much that it makes me feel emotional, so please take a look. https://lnkd.in/dp7XaTiX #userexperience #userresearch #webdesign #contentstrategy

Here it is! No longer waiting in the wings, I am so excited to announce the official launch of The Jaguar Athenaeum (Atha-nee-um). Wow, it has been a long time coming. I began this project, or, I should say, the idea of this project, a little before freshmen year. I knew that I wanted to complete my Girl Scouts of the USA Girl Scout Gold Award. Girl Scouts had always been a place that taught me that my age didn't determine if I could create incredible, and impactful, projects. As my love for the arts grew, as well as my passion for leadership, management, and graphic design, I knew I wanted to create something to help today's, and hopefully tomorrow's, youth. As a child, and even now, as a teenager, I hear all too often to just "wait until you're older". People didn't take my ideas seriously, even when I presented them in that manner, merely because of my age. Now, in high school, I face a similar challenge. Despite the internet and thousands upon thousands of articles, blog posts, YouTube videos, and more, I felt lost and confused trying to figure out a timeline for my high school career. I was tired of spending hours trying to find even the smallest of information that was relevant to me. It was exhausting---and as someone who has spent their free time doing deep dives into jobs and careers from age 10, that's saying something. Eventually, I started to toy with the idea of creating what would soon become the Athenaeum. After a year of research, of figuring out how in the world I would do it, I created The Jaguar Athenaeum club. There is so much I could say about the Athenaeum, and about the incredibly dedicated and talented team that made it a possibility, but I'll just say this: The Jaguar Athenaeum was created to connect youth in the arts, locally, and eventually beyond, not only to each other, but to the industry. In the age of connection, of information, we refined it to create a handbook to act as a mentor to artistic hopefuls in written, visual, and performative arts. To provide opportunity and knowledge for zero cost, available to everyone, everywhere. We weren't sure if it was possible. This was our pilot issue, our way to test if we would be able to pull something like this off. We did. And we're only just getting started. Thank you to everyone who made this project possible, you deserve the world. Stay tuned for more updates, and please show this post, or our website, https://lnkd.in/ei8pHwQY to any creative you know. We can only help artists if they know we are a resource they can use.
