Hi Class! To use Padlet, just click on the pink circle with the plus sign, and then write a little about yourself.
I have been a geographer since 1995, and teaching for 20 years this year! Yay! My motivation is a love for this planet and everything about it, and a sincere desire to be a positive force in making a better world. I've been motivated by Climate Change since I was in 7th grade, so A LONG TIME.

Hi, I'm Danae!

Hi everyone! Nice meeting you all. My name is Carolina and I'm a future business woman majoring in International business to get there with the hopes of transferring to SDSU. I would like to work for a clothing company/brand or make one of my own. My biggest motivation is my family, my significant other and most importantly myself.

Hey, i'm Summer

2022-08-29 18:27:09 UTC

I am a Human Geography Major, and also potentially GIS. I'm here for the next year until I transfer to a four year university. I plan on transferring to a UC. I would like to work for the federal government as an analyst/geographer. Originally, Latin American studies was my intended major, and I learned that earning a degree in a physical science that is related to the Latin American immigration crisis would be far more beneficial to my career. I'm motivated by challenging myself physically in the outdoors. I wake up everyday and ask myself "what am I missing?". It's pretty much never gaming, or TV, or anything screen related..No offense.

I'm a psychology major about to get my associate's degree this semester and planning to transfer to SDSU. I hope to one day be a therapist who works with mental illness and neurodivergent people so that I can give others like me the help I never received, and educate others on these topics.

Hello everyone, my name is William. I am majoring in cybersecurity and my motivation for this is my love of technology and how it can enhance our lives. I'm taking this class for my science requirement, but I am finding it to be way more interesting than the bio and chemistry classes I took in high school. Looking forward to learning more about the Earth in this course.

Hey everyone I’m Cusha. My plan is to transfer to a university next semester after this one. I’ve decided I’ve wanted to switch majors as my interests lie other places. I’ve switching from sociology to kinesiology. My motivation is because I’ve realized my interests are different from when I started and I want to see the new opportunities that I have with kinesiology.

Hi everyone, my name is Jarvis.

I am a future Mental Health Counselor, currently majoring in Social and Behavioral Sciences. To achieve my goal, I need to complete my general education requirements and an internship.

My motivation comes from my daughter. She inspires me every day to work hard and make a positive impact on the lives of others. I believe that understanding human behavior and social dynamics will be crucial in my future career, and that is why I am excited to be in this Geography lab.

Hello, my name is Daniel Mesina, and one of the career options I've been looking at is becoming a future employee at the National Hurricane Center in Miami, FL. I've been fascinated by the raw power of hurricanes since I was young (Plus, I was originally from the Philippines, a typhoon-prone country). I might be considering holding a dual degree in geography so I could transfer to CU Boulder to get a bachelor's degree in meteorology.

Hello Class!

I apologize for being late for my introduction!

I am a political science and history major, and a legal enthusiast. I love learning about the law in all its esoteric minutiae. Therefore, I plan on transferring to UCSD to obtain a political science/public law degree. My second choice is to attend the UCLA department.

I am uncertain about attending law school to obtain a law degree, but I am certain that I want a career in the legal field.

I love hanging out with my girlfriend, Gwen, and two dogs, Clifton James and Ripley. When I have time away from work and school, I play golf.

Thank you very much and I look forward to learning more about you guys.

-Tyler

Allow me to introduce myself, three weeks later.

How's it going? My name is Ruben Jacobo, but my first name is actually Luis. If I were a Luis, then I would be a Junior--my dad's name is also Luis. Nonetheless, the major I am going for is English Literature, and I hope to become a freelance. Or, at least be in a profession where I discuss or showcase for niche topics: like science fiction, movies, video games, etc. What motivates me to becoming so is the feeling of acomplisment after I finish with Community College, and move onwards. Anyway, I wish you all the best of luck, hi ho!
