My name is Rachel Underwood and I am a candidate for the degree of Masters of Education in Higher Education Leadership at Valdosta State University. I created this portfolio as a capstone assignment in preparation for graduation and entering the profession in May of 2011.
The portfolio is divided into 6 sections with some containing subsections of additional information. It serves to convey my personal philosophy of our profession and to provide evidence of learning during graduate preparation. Anytime you find a bolded word in the text, click the link to view an archive copy of my completed course work.
Finally, I would like to thank the many advisors and mentors that took the time to have intentional conversations with me over the past two years. I have exponentially grown as a person and a professional during this time and I appreciate every hand the process.
