Window into a workday

Ok, so the title of this blog post is slightly misleading, since it's really only once a year that I get to have an ice cream party with a bunch of students as part of my workday, but that tends to be when the camera comes out! Together with my co-workers Maureen and Pat, I help to coordinate, mentor, organize, supervise and rally our group of 225 current students who volunteer for K-Crew, the organization that conducts campus tours, picks visiting students up from the airport and train station, hosts prospective students on overnight campus visits and helps out with all of our group programs. I spend a lot of the year enticing, cajoling and persuading these really busy students to make time in their crazy lives for some volunteer work. At the end of every academic year, we have an appreciation ice cream party for them--one event where we're not asking them for anything! It was a gorgeous day on the quad, and we took some photos.

Not the entire roster, but all of the ice cream party attendees, posing for a picture that will be sent to our incoming first-year students.

Our two student interns (who I also supervise) Jessica and Paige, Pat and me--Maureen was traveling for work and wasn't able to make the party.

Some of my awesome co-workers who came to celebrate, thank the K-Crew members, and eat some ice cream: Ted, Hillary, Emily, Suz, and Ellie (stopping in after school)!

Ellie Ann!
