So, recently i was able to talk to Dr. Steele again about the student handbook, and my presentation the other week. For the most part she seems pleased with my work, and spare a handful of final revisions i should be able to turn over a copy of the handbook within the next week. As she told me the department would take responsibility for finishing it, and filling in the remaining gaps and sections specific faculty members originally wish to compose themselves.
Today i believe i will meet with Dr. Wible around 2:30 to begin work on the website, should i be able to get that out of my way a bit earlier then the night before it is due that should help keep me sane.

Finished Poster
Fortunately i managed to finish and turn in my poster on time, i also managed to rearrange the student handbook according to what we talked about during out meeting on Monday. Although i have turned it in i know there is still much that needs to be done, but it is still a work in progress and i can only work as fast as the materials are provided to me. I hope things will go well tonight, but i'd be lying if i said i wasn't a bit worried about what my final grade will be

Poster Presentation
After furiously working for the past few days I have been able to finally complete the rough draft of the Sociology and Anthropology department's Student Handbook. Though i feel i have accomplished much i fear that upon grading it will be viewed harshly. There are still a handful of blank sections, but since faculty want to write these sections i can do nothing more then handle everything else, and allow them to work at their pace. That aside though this handbook will probably not go into use any earlier then the begining of the fall semester which means they have all the time in the world to write their sections.
Finally, tonight i plan to begin working on the poster presentation part of this assignment. Though i am not worried about getting this done it will take some time to do so in a tasteful manner. Also, hopefully after the completion of tonights First annual Career Day, i will be able to talk one of the profs. into letting me into the office to collect a bit more materials, along with getting them to glance over the handbook before i begin using parts of it for the presentation.

Student Handbook (cont.)
Once again i found myself spending yet another late night working on getting the student handbook together. For the most part everything seems to be going well, though i am not sure as to how i want to arrange a couple of the sections. For now i think i will just write them and once everything is written i can print it out and then step back and make a decision. Next wednesday, right before the presentation for my internship is due i will hopefully get a last little bit of information needed for the completion of what they expect me to do for the internship. As of now, all i can think of is that next wednesday (the 23rd) is going to be one long night, but everything will get done.

Student Handbook
So work on the student handbook's rough draft is progressing fairly smoothly. I've just recently recieved approval for how i wrote the first section of it and within the next few days i plan to have the remaining sections written. I find this a bit of an odd project because alot of the information being placed into the handbook seems repetative but for the intended purposes of the handbook, and the web pages i have been working on this should only be noticable to people like myself who are directly working on both the internet and the handbook.

Begining of Student Handbook
I know i'm starting this project late but only now are the materials becoming fully available that i need from everyone else within the department.
I'm still waiting on a few documents, but other then that i should have a fairly decent product by the time i am done with this. Unfortunately i feel that i may not have it totally complete by the time our posters are due for presentation which worries me. Furthermore, I feel like it will not show my ability as at best i will be compeleting a rought draft for the department to further work with and improve on as both the introductory course for future Soca, and CI students evolves.
