Senior Project Reflection

1. Positive Statement- I am most proud of the fact that I was able to make time with relative ease and that my activity turned out pretty much how I planned. 
2. Questions To Consider

3. What worked for me in my senior project was that I was able to complete all tasks and learn how to conduct extensive amounts of research and manage a nine month long project. 
4. If I had a time machine, I'd go back and pick a different topic, such as skateboarding. Most likely skateboarding. It would have made my senior year much more enjoyable. I didn't realize this until it was to late and I was already well into researching nonprofit organizations. 
5. The senior project has helped me realize that I am not cut out for office work. I realized this after a long mentor ship of mainly office work. Furthermore, it has also taught me the importance of thoroughly researching a topic.

Interpretive 
The most important thing that I've gained from this experience is the fact that I now have a good idea of what it takes to work in an office setting as well as an altruistic setting. I've realized that although I do like nonprofit work, I don't want to do nonprofit work in an office. I'm just not cut out to do that. I am greatly thankful for this experience because I can now narrow down my career choices. 

Applied
In my time spent volunteering with Uncommon Good, I had the opportunity of observing and talking to the staff. After talking with Nancy Mintie and Rebecca Gifford (both of whom I ended up interviewing), I was able to conclude that my best answer was solid and well chosen. They reaffirmed my answer as well as helped me by recommending sources (such as the Stanford Social Innovative Review).
