Honors Experiences
Fostering for OAR
First Honors Experience
For my first honors experiences, I fostered cats for the Ohio Alleycat rescue! I fostered three cats over the course of about a year. I have learned a lot about what it takes to run a no-kill animal shelter and the importance of every individual on a team. This has greatly impacted me because it taught me so much about what teamwork really means. One does not have to see the outcome of their hard work to know that it is making a difference. It is important to realize that being on a team does not always mean being there every step of the way, some individual work will always be involved and is really crucial for the best possible outcome. I really enjoyed doing this work with OAR and absolutely plan on fostering again when I have the time!
Building a Computer and Keyboard
Second Honors Experience
For my second honors experience, I decided to research and build a personal computer and keyboard. I started this task by reading about the different parts that make up a computer and keyboard and the role that each part plays in their functioning as a system. After getting all of the parts for both the computer and the keyboard, it was time to begin assembling it all. To start learning how to do this, I watched a few videos online and reached out to a couple friends of mine who have done this all before to ask for some tips. While this was a tedious process at times, I was patient and careful with my work. Once I got everything assembled and working I was overjoyed.
