与学生导师配对的员工参加了12月12日在沃伦大厅举行的“年中学习庆祝”午宴,在午宴上他们感谢了导师,并简要介绍了他们的学习伙伴关系。学生们还提供了他们对这些经历的想法,以及从他们的伴侣那里学到的东西。
本学期的27个合作项目探索了学习摄影和视频编辑技能、微软Excel、写专业简历、如何制定预算来计划一顿餐厅的食材等等。
Sasha Endo, CLASP’s program liaison, described her own job history, which took her from teaching students in an inner-city school in Philadelphia and a school in Ecuador to working as a dishwasher in a Connecticut restaurant before coming to Ithaca to work at Tompkins-Seneca-Tioga BOCES and then Cornell. She said what she realized is that while all her co-workers, students and their families have had essentially the same levels of intelligence and talent, they have had very different levels of access to education and learning opportunities throughout their lives.
CLASP寻求扩大和扩大终身学习机会,康奈尔大学的员工在他们的职业生涯,远藤说。她还指出,除了学员培养的技能和人际关系外,所有的学员都会从其他同样重要的经历中收获收获。
“如果我们接受了看待某人的工作或文凭,那么判断怎么办,并停止假设这些事情告诉我们那个人的整个画面?”她说。“Based on our own experiences here, getting to know different people in CLASP, we have committed to learning about ourselves more, and about each other more, in order to stop making assumptions about people that we don’t know based on their uniform or what they’re wearing.”
Endo推出了Leila Ellis,他在Appel Commons的北极北之星的Halal Station烹饪康奈尔餐厅,是“学习真正举例说明的人,我遇到的大多数人,”Endo说。
埃利斯指出,与校园里的许多餐厅不同,她的工作是直接向学生提供盘子和餐盘。
“虽然其他车站是自我服务的,但我们面对面的人服务,”埃利斯说。“这真的带给了更个人的进食体验。”
埃利斯与Veronika Drozdova’20合作,学习更多关于清真饮食及其分层含义的知识。
她说:“尽管我不是穆斯林,但对我来说,清真意味着要意识到我消费的所有食品都是天然的、有机的,它们是合法获得的,是人道地养大的,是合乎道德的资源,是在没有有毒毒素和化学品的情况下被带到市场上的。”
埃利斯说,通过CLASP和德罗兹多瓦建立的一对一学习关系,她发现了更深刻的东西。
