Responsibilities (projects completed, tasks assigned, etc.):

This practicum consisted of working primarily with first-year College of Business students as an academic advisor. This included assisting students in considering class options, talking through specialization choices, referring students to both academic and personal resources necessary for success, discussing transfer options both within and outside of the institution, and answering questions regarding their college experience and the College of Business Administration in particular. I also met with students interested in transferring into the College of Business Administration from other colleges within BGSU.
