You've heard me talk about the Excellence in Communication Certificate (ECC) a couple of times now in class. As the semester ends, we're encouraging interested LA 101H students to sign up for the program now. If you're in Schreyer, or if you're a Paterno Fellow Aspirant, I strongly encourage you to sign up.
You're more than welcome to put me down as your preference for ECC advisor--I'd love to stay connected with you for the rest of your time at Penn State! But if you feel like you'd rather get some feedback from someone else, I completely understand. (And I won't be checking up on who is assigned to other advisors, so no need to worry about any awkwardness should you choose to go elsewhere.)
So what does "signing up" mean? Essentially, it simply means you'll be assigned an advisor to walk you through the process, and will receive occasional emails updating you on changes to the program. You'll also have the opportunity to meet with your ECC advisor to discuss your work at any point until submission. (Submission is usually second semester junior year or first semester senior year.) Other than access to an advisor, the benefit of registering now is that you'll stay updated on the program, which can help keep it on your radar.
So I encourage you to read more about the ECC program, or to sign up at the link below:
