Hello and welcome to our blog! During the Bonner Summer Fellows Program we will have all of the participants and staff blog about their experiences each day. We will share some each day with you all here!
My name is Brittany and I am one of the full-time staff here at the Bonner Center. I have been working with our team to develop a meaningful and fun experience for everyone over our 12 day program and I am excited to get started. There are so many great things planned on top of the challenging college course and service experiences. We will have guest speakers, workshops, a careers panel, movie nights, discussions, and of course, some fun activities.
With the program starting in only 3 days, I have been thinking about what I want the students in the program to walk away with. I had such a great experience in college, being in the Bonner Community Scholars Program and doing community service, that it really shaped my career choice and opened my eyes to larger local, national, and global issues. I am hoping that we will be able to share our personal experiences during the program and guide the participants through their own experiences that will leave them with open eyes and a deeper understanding of social justice.
I look forward to meeting everyone on Sunday and I will be available to answer any questions that may arise! I encourage you to check back daily and read about everything we are doing during the Bonner Summer Fellows Program!
