A Unique Opportunity
Recently, I was approached by my mentor, and IST Student Government President Steve Garguilo with a rather interesting proposition. He asked me if I would be interested in taking a Teaching Intern position in next semester's SRA 111 class. Honestly, when I found out about this, I was quite surprised. I didn't know that freshman got asked to do such things. Anyway, as a TI, my duties will include attending all the classes, helping to coordinate learning activities with the instructor, and offering extra assistance to those who may need it.
Needless to say, I'm excited about this opportunity. It should be a good leadership experience to add to my resume, and, the two credits of IST 296 as compensation are nice, too.

Sweet gig! Maybe my mentor who I have never met will be surprise me with an opportunity....
Congrats. It sounds like a really appropriate opportunity for you. Two credits towards IST 296? Like Steven said, sweet.. Have fun!
That is really cool! I wish I had that chance. Definitely a good idea to take advantage. Plus you get two credits which I would assume to be an easy A.
Good luck, I know a few other people that are going to be TIs too. It really is a great opportunity to help out other students.
Congratz...That is so awesome. I never knew FYS could get those postions either. Do you think it will be weird helping teach student your own age? That's PSU for ya.
Aight, T.I., lemme show you how to do this! hahaha yeah, I know we've already been through that a million times, but I thought I'd post it on your blog. Congratulations on getting the position and good luck with it, I'm sure you'll be working twice as hard next semester!
