    My second week interning at the Office of Sustainability went better than last week.

    This

    week, I took initiative and tried my best to address the concerns I had from last week. Monday, I

    did not work for Martin Luther King Day. This semester I am also taking the Research methods

    course which is from 1-1:50 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. We did not have class this

    week, so I was able to focus solely on my research project for my internship. This week’s focus

    was mainly on making connections rather than continuing the research I started last week.

    Wednesday morning, I met with my research methods professor, Dr. Speelman at Blackbird to

    get some advice from her on how to get started on my research project. She explained to me how

    I could breakdown my project into a timeline of goals for myself. We are completing a group

    research project in her class which expands over the course. I will be basically using that project

    as my guide for the research project for my internship. She told me that next week we will begin

    learning how to write a lit review, which I will also be attempting on my research project outside

    of class. Then we will be learning how to do surveys. She explained that if I were to make a

    survey on herbalism to give out to students, I would have to get it approved by the IRB

    (Institutional Review Board). She said that if I start with a survey that showed qualitative data,

    then it will take less time to get approved. I also am planning on writing a research proposal to be

    able to participate in Research Day on March 29th where I am planning to display a poster as well

    as show a visual aid. Hopefully by the end of the semester I will have an article on my research

    project posted on “The Corinthian”. I am very grateful that Dr. Speelman has offered to work

    with me on this project and has given me so many ideas and opportunities. This week I also

    spent a lot of time in the office getting to know the other interns. I did not have any specific

    questions for them other than I just wanted to hear their experience when they first became an

    intern at the Office of Sustainability. They said that they felt just like me when they started,
    slightly uncomfortable and unsure what to do, but then after they started getting to know

    everyone it got easier. It made me feel better that they felt the same way. I have realized this

    week that the more I work with other people the more comfortable I feel. I like receiving

    reassurance that I am on track and where I need to be. This week has relieved a lot of stress and

    has made me more excited to get into my research project and see how far it will go.
