IST 511 Reflection Day 5

While IST 511 has come to a close our careers are just beginning. As I reflect on my time at SU I had two epiphanies. First, I reaffirmed my goal to be a school library media specialist. I have big plans to integrate technology into our childrens' education and collaborate with teachers. Schools are the desired venue for this change agent. Schools will be my niche; librarianship is where I belong. This leads me to my second discovery: I am so proud to be part of such an accepting, honorable and diverse group of individuals that serves as the foundation for our intellectual freedom. Our nation is blessed to have advocates of this caliber who share so much of their time, intellect, and values. It is with great anticipation that I may carry this torch forward.

Many thanks to Scott Nicholson, Tasha Cooper, Blythe Bennett and the rest of the Syracuse University ischool staff who made this such a welcoming and ratifying experience.

Spring,

Kate
