Changes A-Foot!

I truly dread this time of year for one reason- saying goodbye. We have student workers who are leaving us to study abroad or to study elsewhere next year. Some are graduating and going on to do other things (like work and graduate school.) I hold them close to my heart and know that they will be somewhere else in the world and not here making me smile! Lucky World!

Meanwhile, on the last day of the school year, I am energized for new work for myself, new relationships, building deeper ones for those colleagues I already know, and reading so many textbooks and research this summer. Renewal, re-energizing, rededicating. May all of us live long and prosper!

We are hiring! Student Library Workers!

We are now hiring for fall of 2008. If you want to work in a supportive, caring, and fun environment...please pick up an application quickly at Pierce Library's service desks in the Circulation department or in the Electronic Research Center. We work your schedule around your academic and private life, trying to be as flexible as possible and still keep the library running efficiently!

I can even email you an app!

ASAP! Rapidamente!

Moving to the College of Education

In September, I will be moving to the College of Education to teach secondary curriculum to the MTE students, educational technology to CUESTE, and music methods to both. I am also teaching online the teacher-librarian cognate in the MS in Education program. I haven't gotten my schedule yet but I am sure it will be tons of fun and challenge. Needless to say, I am psyched! I have been in this position at Pierce for four years and it is fun working with students out here in the Electronic Research Center. My brain just needs to use the degrees I have worked so hard to attain. Student loans start in August so this change will help!

P.S. This is not my hood....just borrowed the pix!
