On Wednesday, February 12th McKenzie and I had a Welcome Back/Meet Your New Mentor pizza party!
The pizza party took place on the 15th floor of Sandburg West for the
Wisconsin Covenant LLC with a healthy supply of pizza thanks to PALMS!
What happened at the pizza party was, of course, I
introduced myself and let everyone know when my LLC hours are, Wednesday's from
5-6pm in W15. We also let the LLC
students know what events we have planned for them and asked what they want to
do. A few things we were able to come up
with is resume building, finding a job on campus, going to a food pantry, doing
something with Journey House and possibly going back to our high schools and
speaking to perspective students about coming to UW-Milwaukee.
Our pizza party event gave us a much better insight on what
the WI Covenant students are interested in doing and learning. We have now planned a resume/ finding a job
event and are in the works of planning our future events with going to a food
pantry and going to our high school.
This event has helped the WI Covenant students because they
were able to meet me and know when I will be working, but it also is helping
them because they are the ones who really picked out the events they want
planned all McKenzie and I have to do is now plan them!
