Faculty Advisor, Early Childhood and Elementary Education Club, a MSU Recognized Student Organization (RSO) 2007 – 2009.
During AY08 and AY09, I was faculty advisor for the Early Childhood and Elementary Education Club. The purpose of this organization is to:
- represent the students in pre-service teacher education programs
- foster professional development among ECEE students at MSU
During this period, I facilitated the ECEE Club’s expansion to including more than 50 student members. The ECEE Club also updated and revised its Constitution. As faculty advisor, I attended ECEE Club meetings, brainstormed ideas about leadership and events, advised about fundraisers, and planned leadership transitions. The ECEE Club also promoted our department’s student trip to the 2007 Annual Conference for the National Association for the Education of Young Children.
At the conclusion of AY09, the ECEE Club President nominated me for the RSO Advisor Recognition Award. Although I did not receive the major award, I did receive an RSO Advisor Appreciation Certificate.
