Ethan's Training Week Post

Discuss your hopes for the year.  What do you hope to learn and what ENERGY do you bring to the community.
As the new Program Assistant for the Engineering Residential College my biggest hope is to provide the same, if not better, experience to my incoming residents. While engineering is such a hard degree to pursue, the Community that I set up has the potential to be a great positive reinforcement. I plan on being able to set up an environment that will assist all of my residents in reaching the the end of their second semester with their Engineering hopes still in tact. 
Being a former Freshman in Engineering I know that a big key in success is motivation to study, ask that important question, or try something new and confusing. I hope to cultivate this sense of motivation with my positive energy and general excitement toward all things engineering.
I also hope to learn more about how other think, and go about their thought processes, be it in math, or in general social settings. I feel that this will assist me in creating my ultimate goal of a motivating environment.
