Last Blog Repost

I found the blog to be a helpful way of learning along with our volunteering. We are in a big city with what we still see as a new community, and it can be hard getting engaged. I think that the blog at the beginning of the semester was helpful to getting comfortable with the volunteering side of the CSLP. I think when you can read the other peoples ideas you're able to see that other people are going through the same things you are.

I think as the semester went on I found myself with less and less time to read other peoples blogs. I think that in the future it would be more beneficial to have people present their volunteering information in the class room during class time. This would do two things, one they would better be able to articulate the problems and advantages they find at their place of volunteering. Also I think that the people in the class who are not doing the volunteering, or are unable to volunteer, would then be able to learn from people as well. I think in the end this would provide topics for class discussion and such as well.

Thank you for a great project and I can wait to see the success of our hard work and your classes in the future!

Have a good summer!
