I was so excited to get a call back from Jackson Hewitt about starting my part-time internship in the Spring with them. In order to graduate in December, I had to continue to take a full course load of classes this semester. Therefore, I was happy I could find something locally in Tuscaloosa so that I could take classes at the same time while working part-time. It was tough at first managing my five classes, work-study, and internship all in one semester but I managed to pull through it successfully. With that being said, my internship at Jackson Hewitt was a success and I learned many wonderful things that could potentially benefit my future career.

In the exhilarating tale, The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak, a character that would serve well as a best friend is Hans Hubermann. Hans is a great example of someone who is a great friend because he is very compassionate. Hans showed compassion in the story when he cared for Liesel as his own daughter and when he risked his life for the sake of Max Vandenburg’s. On page 36 of the text, it states, “Every night, Liesel would nightmare. … Possibly the only good to come out of these nightmares was that it brought Hans Hubermann her new papa into the room to soothe her, to love her.” This shows that Hans Hubermann is compassionate towards Liesel and he is there when she needs love. Also, Liesel can count on him to lift up her spirits when she is feeling

I am writing to express my interest in the position of Heifer Village Coordinator. For the past year, I have been volunteering at Heifer Farm as a member of the Residential Education Team. My passion and admiration for Heifer International has been blazing since I participated in an Alternative Break Program at Heifer Ranch in my youth. Moved, amazed and more aware of the world around me - - I knew after leaving the Ranch I wanted to do everything within my power to continue to Pass on the Gift I had received. With this goal in mind, I set out on a journey to give back to Heifer, what Heifer had given to me -The gift of education! In the past year, I have worked with people from every walk of life (abilities, socioeconomic status, age, and

Interning at the FBI is one of my most meaningful experiences because it gave me the opportunity to serve in my community, learn how to effectively communicate between the intelligence community and the outside community, as well as strengthened my leadership skills.

I've traveled to South Africa to explore international agriculture. While these have all been amazing experiences, the most important thing I gained through agricultural education is my voice. Prior to my involvement in the FFA, I would never have dreamed of advocating for agriculture education no matter how strongly I felt about it. I would never have dreamed of speaking in front of crowds of over 500 people without a script in front of me. It is because of these experiences and the experiences of over 2,600 other New Jersey FFA members that I implore you to find a way to continue the Agriculture Teacher Certification Program

Growing up on a family farm in rural South Dakota, I never considered myself different from any other farm kid. At the age of eight, I joined the local 4-H club. Through my ten years of membership, I have participated in many differing project areas from showing beef calves to visual arts and everything in between. Through my many failures, I learned from my mistakes taking numerous best of show awards at county fair and finding success at state fair. 4-H has also given me the opportunity to become more involved in my community through local, county, and statewide community service projects. 4-H sparked my interest in agriculture.

These opportunities include her visit to the National Association of Farm Broadcasting (NAFB) Conference this fall where she could meet other Agricultural Communication students from other schools. At the conference, she made career connections and could apply for scholarships. She credits AEC for introducing her to the applications to apply for scholarships and to be able to attend the conference.

In the summer of 2017, I lost my father to a tragic farming accident. I was devastated, I felt as if my life could not continue, although I had to push through because I could not take a year off from college. My father was my inspiration to pursuing an education in agriculture. From a young age, he taught to garden and to work with animals. I loved planting the seeds in the ground and watching them grow and enjoying the fresh crops on our table.Through the knowledge, my father gave me I learned the importance of farming and ranching after all people will always need to eat. Later, my skills led me to become an involved member and officer in FFA at Chelan High school. Chelan FFA helped me gain confidence in myself and further opened my eyes

I completed the Hispanic National Internship Program at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA), for the Summer 2017 Session. My duties were as follows:

I recently did a Food for America project, which is a project on basically anything having to do with agriculture, presented to children in my town and too many others. For my project I chose to do Shribers Foods. If you don’t know, Shribers is a company that makes dairy products all over America. Shribers was even kind enough to donate some cheese to my group as samples for the children to whom I presented. That is an excellent example of how adults can help out. I’d like to connect FFA and Young Farmers Farm Wives of America, because if everyone grouped together we could make Food for America bigger and better each year, by having more things to see, especially things the FFA students don’t have or couldn’t acquire, but that could be brought in from the young farmers to do a presentation over, then more education is spread to the younger generation.

With the ever-growing population farmers have had to come up with solutions for a very common problem… hunger. Sadly roughly 21,000 die every day of hunger worldwide (globalissues.org). With these shocking statistics farmers have had to put the pedal to the medal to produce food for not just north America but the world. Yet countless people in the United States of America still hold strong opinions on how the agriculture industry is not doing as best as they can be. Yet like most of millennials in America they want to take no responsibility and educate themselves; yet want to put their two cents into every conversation and post of social media. Therefore every student that graduates must be enrolled into an agriculture class at least one time within their four year stay at high school.

This image was chosen because it depicts an extreme and unlikely scenario in which a male is completely calm and untroubled in a potential life threatening in which he is propelling several feet above four circling sharks in the middle of the ocean. Also, I particularly found the bolded red writing claiming “Be Prepared For Anything” and “the handbook for men” particularly interesting and thought that it spoke to the masculine notion of always remaining composed and in control of one’s environment. Furthermore, I also found the stark contrast between the male’s facial expression of superiority and the dangerousness of the situation interesting.

Growing up on a third generation beef and crop farm has helped me gain a love of agriculture. Since I was a child I have been helping out the farm and have had a love of agriculture ever since. I currently own four of my own beef cows and each year I raise the calves to sell in the fall. My future dream is to take over the family farm after I finish college, as well as work as an agricultural loan officer. In high school I joined FFA. This organization truly changed my perspective on Agricultural as a whole. It made me realize

When deciding on our internship project, we wanted to do something that would be useful for future interns in the DFCS office. We were very nervous the first few weeks due to not knowing what to expect or what the staff expected of us. Our internship is a large portion of our education within the Community/Public Health major, so we wanted to make the best of it. We had many questions, which contributed to our nerves and were often afraid the case managers and supervisors would not have time to answer them. We asked the questions anyway, which facilitated learning along the way. With that in mind we came up with The Intern’s Guidebook to help ease the nerves of future interns and guide them through the internship experience. This in turn would
