G.O.A.L.S.
Global Awareness
• My intended career is largely based on global awareness. If I am not globally aware, I would probably be very bad at my job involving romance studies and linguistics. Many of my courses, especially those with a global focus like my Spanish class, help me reach this goal and learn more about the world.
Original Inquiry
• I want to pursue a job involving research and I have already started doing original research for my classes. In my Language, Sex, and Gender class, for example, I am working on original research where I compare the associations people who speak different languages make with words in their languages. This is an instance of how I use my classes to fulfill the Original Inquiry goal and investigate my own ideas.
Academic Enrichment
• I want the courses I take to challenge me, but also interest me because I want to be excited about learning. It’s important to me to be passionate about what I’m doing. It’s also important that I push myself, and I’m taking classes that do this. Next semester, for example, I’m taking an accelerated Italian course that will fulfill all three years of Italian in one semester. It’s a hard class, but I’m willing to push myself in my studies to get it done.
Leadership
• Next semester, I’m enrolled in an internship-based class in Linguistics that will allow me to assist with research. From this, I plan to gain leadership experience in the field and to help earn jobs of similar stature in the future.
Service Engagement
• So far, my planned service comes largely through things like the earlier-mentioned research class, but I completed service to my community in high school and would like to do so while at Ohio State.
