Talkative Thursdays: Gracie

Hi swell. I want to introduce everyone to Gracie. She's new to the platform and she's currently in her last semester studying criminal justice. So she is about to graduate this semester. So Yay. So if you can just give her a warm welcome below. And Gracie, I really want to know how you've kept up with school and your job on campus. What exactly does your job entail and how's your semester going? I know we're finishing up our first week

So everyone please pray for me. I am working on campus as an associated student involvement coordinator. I just got that job in August and I really like it. So basically what my job is about is we help get students involved on campus, such as fraternity and sorority life. Also with cave, sustainability, summer orientation ways where people can come and volunteer or get some type of internship

I had absolutely no idea that you wanted to go to New York. What do you plan to do in New York? Like be a cop Detective. What are you trying to get into? Exactly? And that's really cool that you enjoy doing your job. It sounds like you do a lot of good work, work for all the students. So if anyone needs an internship or anything like that, you are the go to girl. So thanks for putting that out there

And then also just my junior year of high school, my high school offered like, a forensic files class, and it was like, part of like, either taking like, biology or that one. And I was always super excited to go to that class. So coming here to Chico State, I knew that I wanted to enroll here because I knew that their criminal justice system here was really good because one of my sister's best friends actually graduated from Chico

But that's so cool that you get to go to New York, and that's how sweet of your sister to want to take you there and you're not scared at all to be a Detective in New York. I feel like there's so much crime over there. Do you know about the crime rates? And I don't know exactly if this is correct, but don't you have to be, like, a cop or highway patrol? I don't know. Something like that

Hey, Gracie. Congratulations. Fourth year is so exciting because you're hopefully planning to take your next steps. Are you going to continue education, are you going to go into the workforce? Are you going to take a gap year? What's your plan? Very excited for you and to hear what the criminal justice degree will drive for your future. Wherever you're located

I'm hoping everything goes well, but as of right now, I'm working on my resume and speaking to criminal justice counselors or whatnot to see what further steps I can take because I am also not sure what I'm going to be doing once I graduate, but I'm excited to see what internship I can get or what job. So I'm hoping something can work out by the end of the time that I graduated in may
