Urban Poly Princess

I finally called my dean. She is very nice. It helps to work for Stevens-Henager College because I do have a direct line to her. She has been very helpful to me thus far, but I do have to give up my pipe dream of graduating this year. It is what motivated me to get this far so for that it's a good thing BUT it is annoying that I'll have to change my LinkedIn Profile to reflect that.

One of the women I visit teach is working or rather NOT working on her thesis. She told me not to worry about graduating in 2013 and that everyone has to go through the bureaucracy process. The year I finished my MLS is the year they decided to do something called progress review. I had to assemble projects and demonstrate how I met the schools' desired outcomes. In addition to submitting work I had to write a 3-page essay answering 3 general questions the Library School felt were essential. That was a breeze. A committee of 5 judged all progress reviews. When I completed progress review they passed me, praised my writing BUT said I needed practical experience.

That's when I furiously started looking for a job in the field which is when I got the job as a librarian substitute with Salt Lake County. I was lucky because I initially wanted the customer service position BUT the personnel lady called one of the managers who was my reference teacher who gave me an A for her class. She told the personnel lady to have me fill a librarian spot. Usually substitute librarians must have their MLS first. My father in heaven has just blessed me all over the place.
