I started my day going to breakfast and then headed to the office. I started working on the thank you notes that I left off yesterday. Then before lunch Bonny, my project mentor, took me for a walk around campus. We walked through the buildings that were built off campaigns and donations. I learned about the importance of recognizing the people that helped during the process, which is also a common manner. I learned about how the campaigns to raise money works and how long it takes to make things like this happen. Besides that I learned a little about the history of proctor. It is very impressive and remarkable all the work that these people do behind the scenes. I would say that was the highlight of today. I then went to lunch and came back to the office. Then I finished the day doing thank you notes and organizing what is next for the details for the reunion. 


Hours:

8:45 am- 12pm

    Thank you so much for helping in the Development Office and for writing "thank you" notes.

Paloma Garcia Rosado Senior Project  Daily Blogs May 11 Today I continued working with the athletics Hall of Fame project. I had to fix some details about it and then I finished. I completed my first important task and I felt good. After that Tracey shared with me some details about the reunion that we are going to try to work on tomorrow. Then there was a check in meeting with the office and I finally got to meet Lauren Smith, who is the director of the alumni office. I would say that was the highlight of today as I felt that they were including me on their team. Then I went to lunch and after I got back I started working with some mail that had to be re-mail with a different address. Then I finished the day making the rest of  the survival kits for the reunion project.  Hours:  8:45am -12pm 1-2:45pm

  Paloma Garcia Rosado Senior Project  Daily Blogs May 10 Today I worked with what I left yesterday and finished with the bottoms for the alumni. Then my mentor told me that there was some stuff to do and that I could do either of them. I could start writing thank you notes to the people that donated money to proctor, start working on other details of the reunion, or start working with the athletics hall of fame. I decided to work in the athletic hall of fame. For this one I had to look up pictures of the people nominated to the hall of fame in the green lantern book. After this I started working on the thank you notes. Then I went to lunch and after I got back I continued. These thank you notes are not a priority so I started working on other details for the reunion. I had to make minis survival kits for the people coming for the reunion. I have to make 75 and today I made 60. I spent the rest of the time after lunch making them. Hours: 8:45am -12pm 1-2:45pm

Week #1 Reflexion

  Paloma Garcia Rosado Senior Project  May 22, 2023 Weekly Reflexion  In the first week of my senior project I set new expectations for myself. I was going to start working in an office which is a different environment to what I am used to. When I got to the office people welcomed me very warmly and it made me feel confident. As the people at the office introduced themselves, I also got to know their roles at the office. Each of them and their roles are very important for the success of the school. This first week as I got to know the roles and responsibilities of the people in the office I also learned their goals as an alumni office. The goal is to keep a connection between the alumni from proctor and think that proctor impacted their life so much that they would like to help in any way. The connection they have created with the alumni have helped them to receive a lot of donations that have helped the school in different ways. Also I learned the different ways to keep communicat
