My job is very similar to Ondrea's. I'll be:
- Working on continuing the collaboration between Oberlin College and the Ohio Benefit Bank, a computer program that makes it easier for those in need to apply for government benefits
- Educating the Oberlin community about poverty in the United States, Lorain County, and Oberlin
- Collecting, compiling, and sharing data about Oberlin students' community involvement
- Managing social media for the BCSL--sharing photos, cool facts, articles, videos, etc.!
I just graduated with a degree in Politics from Oberlin in May. I spent my time as a student working in the Admissions office, riding for the Equestrian Team, completing my honors project on education policy, and spending a semester abroad in Morocco. I liked living here so much I decided to stay!
We're busy preparing for the impending influx of students--LEADS, a two-week leadership workshop for a small group of returning Oberlin students begins Monday! I'm looking forward to seeing campus bustling again and getting to know the awesome students and community members I'll be working with!
