Things I am working on:
  • The fall semester campus-wide survey on student community service
  • Working with Sam on a logo and blogspot for the Lorain County EITC Coalition:  http://loraincountyeitc.blogspot.com
  • Fun fact: the EITC Coalition is a group of non-profit agencies working together to help people fill out their taxes to get the refunds they are eligible for but might not be aware of or know how to access.  The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is a credit that may low-wage working people are eligible for, and it can result in a tax refund of several thousand dollars
  • A 1-module, 1-credit private reading on poverty--the first class was Monday and I think it went well.  Good people, good discussion!
  • Winter Term (come by the BCSL to find a community service WT project!)
  • Attending webinars on taxes, Honor Roll applications, and more taxes
