Today's Meeting

Hello Everybody,


So I know I've only put up one other post, since I have had nothing Disney related to say, but today after a couple of weeks since the problem came up, I had a meeting with the Dean of Students to discuss credit options. In case you all didn't know, I was having problems with Marymount and how many credits they would give me so I could be a full time student. There were so many people I had to go through in order to address the situation so finally I ended up at Dean Salmon's office today.
So after my parents talked to Susan (the internship woman at Marymount) and after she talked with Rob (my advisor) they realized that there were a few options here: 1. transfer to a school as a non degree student and get credits through them and transfer them back to Marymount. 2. take the 3 credits from Marymount for the internship and not be a full time student or (the worst option of all) 3. Not go to Disney at all because I cannot obtain full time student status. So in the end, we decided that I would do option #2 because it is the most reasonable and does not require the effort that #1 does but still allows me to go which option #3 does not allow. This is a once in a life time opportunity and there was no way I was going to give it up.
Also Disney related news, although I am only receiving 3 credits for the College Program as a whole, I decided today that I am going to take a course there anyway even though I won't receive any credit for it. It is part of the Professional Development Series Courses that you can take while in the CP and I decided that it would be beneficial to enroll in the Entertainment Show Production course because it is closely related to my major and gives me the opportunity to learn about all aspects of theater and meet with professionals. This is a fantastic opportunity and I am extremely excited to embark on this journey.
In other news, as most of you know I am currently interning with the off Broadway show the Blue Man Group as their production intern. I am sad to say that tomorrow will be my last day at this amazing production. I have learned a lot, and met some awesome and creative people and am very sad to leave. However while I'm in Orlando you can be sure that I will be seeing their Orlando show at Universal Studios!
Well, that is all the news I have for everyone for now. I hope you're enjoying my blog and continue reading!

Have a magical day!
Elise
