A Graduate's Connection

Responsibility

Throughout the course of this project I had to be self sufficient in collecting and putting together data. I also had to make sure that the facts were cited properly and all information was accounted for.

Communication

Communication was a big factor in this project for me. The skill of public speaking was improved upon, and being able to interview professional in the field. Also I found it very valuable to be able to share such a powerful message.

Citizenship

Citizenship was constantly impacted through this process. From interviews and conversations to talking to the student body and faculty about the topics of anxiety and depression.

Curiosity

Curiosity is the basis of this entire project. Finding the topic of interest and doing the research all uses curiosity. In order to get anywhere in this project you have to have the curiosity to learn more.

Social/Emotional

The social aspect of this is the communication both in the presentation aspect and in talking to people personally. This introduces two different levels of communication so multiple people can try and understand.

For emotional side of this topic hits the nail on the head. Anxiety is an emotional connection just as much as it is a physical one. For many this is a topic that most can relate to. Some are to afraid to admit their struggles so in this aspect it shows those people they aren't alone. For the people who don't have this problem it allows them to be informed and aware of the topic.
