She is getting her degree in communications and would like to end up in event planning, Human Resources, or in an administrative position. During her time here at the University, she enjoyed being part of the leadership for the <strong>On Iowa!<\/strong> program. She also says that has really enjoyed working in the engineering library because she likes being able to help other students find what they need. This last semester she had a four-credit internship with us, which added to her normal duties at the circulation desk and included helping with class and workshop preparations, doing some data entry and curating an exhibit. She says that one of the favorite parts of her job include <em>&#8220;working alongside amazing people and becoming more organized.&#8221;<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_8514\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8514\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-8514 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-1800x1800.jpg 1800w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-640x640.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blog.lib.uiowa.edu\/eng\/files\/2019\/12\/IMG_20191210_140847square-scaled.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-8514\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Congratulations, Jarod!

Some of Jarod&#8217;s favorites parts of being at UI are becoming familiar with Iowa City and all the arts, festivals, food, and football! He has enjoyed working at the engineering library because he likes seeing all the faces &#8211; both familiar and new &#8211; while seeing the wide range if disciplines the library caters to. He also said, <em>&#8220;I want to say how grateful I am for having this job during my undergrad.
