Week 1

After class on Tuesday, I am very excited to work with the Visions 6 staff this year. Although I know it will be challenging, I think the group this year will organize a phenomenal event. The heads of departments were extremely welcoming and offered helpful tips and advice for my position as Outreach and Tour Coordinator.

This week, Adrienne has decided that her and Shannon's departments should combine for our weekly meetings. I think the combination of these two groups will be very beneficial because I believe Development/Fundraising and Hospitality work closely and will lead to more productive brainstorming. Our first combined departmental meeting is scheduled for this upcoming Thursday. 

I began researching the responsibilities of an Outreach and Tour Coordinator more in depth. I now know that I must expand upon an already existing database of partners, which searching and networking with a partner school will be a large part of my job this semester. Also, the tour and Film Kid mixer will be main focuses. This position will push me to improve my organization and networking/communications skills even more. Although it was just sent last night, I briefly reviewed the departmental manual for hospitality. I will read it more thoroughly later.
