(1) What ideas do you have for your senior project and why?
Honestly, I’m not planning on coming back senior year, so I haven’t put much thought in it, but if I did stay, I would choose concert production or social work. I would choose concert production because it would be fun and social work because that’s what I want my career to be and I know it would look good on my college applications if they see I’ve been working on stuff like that.
Roz (Feedback): I think concert production would be good because you have the resources for it, but social work would be a little more challenging unless you have someone in mind that could help you with that.
(2) What do you plan to do to complete the 10 hours of service learning (working with an expert) which is due prior to senior year starting? Note: They also have to complete the 50 hours during the school year.
Well, like I stated in the previous statement, I'm not planning on coming back to iPoly. So obviously, I haven't given much thought to how I'm going to do that. I really have no idea.
Roz (Feedback): Well if you do concert production, My dad can always help. And since you have Glass House connections, there’s other people there that can make the project easy like they did for me.
(3) What do you hope to see or expect to see when watching the class of 2012 present their two hour presentations?
I hope see some pretty interesting topics, nothing boring please. If I'm going to be sitting around, watching a presentation for two hours, I would hope that it would be entertaining or informative.
Roz (Feedback): Just go into them with an open mind. Last year, I didn’t want to watch them either and the first one I watched (Matt Briggs’s) completely blew me away and made me automatically interested in the project. I saw a lot of good ones, so you should have a good time.
(4) What questions do they have about senior project? What additional recommendations would you give the 2013 student about senior project? Be specific and note what you told them.
I think the whole point of it is to learn how to back up your opinions with factual evidence. I thought it was actually really fun. It’s especially gratifying to know that you’ve done a good job all year and didn’t give up like some of your friends. The key is just to pick something you either really like or have connections with. I think that’s the only flaw in the system. You can’t just pick anything. I would’ve loved to do a senior project on cake decorating or baking, but I didn’t want to end up changing everything about my project like so many people had to do. And Stay at iPoly! It's worth it.
