Hello!
February has been an exciting month in the Education and
Leadership LLC! We hosted two rounds of incoming freshmen in our LLC for the Go
Milwaukee event. The Education and Leadership LLC also made some plans and
launched some ideas for the LLC this semester.
Go Milwaukee was an event that was put on by the University
to introduce incoming first year students to the university and to the
opportunities in University Housing. I was able to meet about 20 different
students on two separate days and introduce them to the LLC. I shared the
mission I had set for this year’s Education and Leadership LLC to help students
get more connected with the School of Education and the Milwaukee Community.
The students were able to meet some current residents and learn about how being
in the LLC has improved their experience at UWM. My suitemates and I had the
opportunity to show off our well decorated suite as a part of the tour
experience, and Associate Dean of the School of Education, Jeremy Page, joined
in the tour!
In addition to the Go Milwaukee event, the Education and
Leadership LLC was able to start working on some of our plans for the semester.
After talking with the residents of the LLC and reviewing the results of a
survey of interests, we decided to focus on volunteering and being connected to
the Milwaukee community. We are still in the process of connecting residents
with sites.
Even though it is the shortest, February has still been
packed with hype in the LLC. We are excited to see where the rest of the
semester goes!
