So lately I didn’t realize I was in the midst of a full schedule here at UWSP and it’s the start of summer. Being involved on our campus takes a level of commitment most students stray away from. Currently I’m taking summer classes to broaden my perspective on Latin America and the Spanish language. Some would say "Oh Spanish get out of here – it’s easy." Well this summer class is nowhere near as easy as I would like it to be. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining because I know the courses I have completed has prepared me well, but 6 exams in 4 weeks for an 4 credit class involves a lot of reading and speaking Spanish. On the other hand I have been really busy helping UWSP transition to a self operative food service program.

University Dining Service is our new student operated food service program here at UWSP. After long meetings and much time spent protesting against the prior food service, the students here at UWSP is given the opportunity to enjoy a wide variety of great food. At the moment I’m a Student Manager. My job includes being a leader. Lately I had to redefine what it means to be a leader. Foodservice management among my peers is not easy. Whenever you place Pointers in the same room representing a wide range of majors, WOW, I mean WOW. The talent here is phenomenal.
