During college I was a START leader and worked in New Student Programs. I was involved in Greek life on campus and held leadership positions for my chapter and Panhellenic council. When I started to think about life beyond college, I knew I didn\u2019t want to enter the corporate world. I loved my own academic advisor, and I attribute the fact that I didn\u2019t fail out of college to her, so I went straight to grad school in the college student services administration program. After that, I advised the design program as it moved from PHHS to COB, then sociology and now natural resources.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-361 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.oregonstate.edu\/collegeofforestry\/files\/2019\/04\/IMG_20190324_163425-e1555949955342-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/3115\/files\/2019\/04\/IMG_20190324_163425-e1555949955342-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/3115\/files\/2019\/04\/IMG_20190324_163425-e1555949955342-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/3115\/files\/2019\/04\/IMG_20190324_163425-e1555949955342-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s different about being an advisor in the College of Forestry than anywhere else on campus?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our group is well-respected across campus.
