Hi!! My name is Dr. Rosalie Richards. I am from a tiny island in the Caribbean, Antigua. I am professor of chemistry at Georgia College and also the Kaolin-Endowed Chair in Science. As Kaolin Chair, I direct the Science Education Center which is located across from the studio lab. At the center, our work are dedicated to excellence in science teaching and learning. We have a number of volunteer science projects that you can participate in, so please stop by the center! I also investigate the application of porphyrins in drug design and catalysis. This past year, I’ve also started a project in soil chemistry. I teach general chemistry, physical science and other chemistry courses.
This summer I traveled a lot for work - New York, Virginia, New Jersey, South Korea and finally to Antigua for some R&R.
Hello! I am Casandra (Casey) Boutwell. I am from Hephzibah, Ga which is right outside of Augusta, Ga. My concentration is science in the Middle Grades cohort and I am really excited to learn more about science, even if it is reviewing since I am sure I have forgotten a lot of information over the years. I coached a swim team this summer and really enjoyed it.
Hi my name is Sarah Lamkin. I am from Cumming, Ga, where I was born and raised. I attended Forsyth Central High School. I am a social sciences concentration, but am also very interested in teaching Language Arts. I am excited for this upcoming school year and eager to see where this Science course takes us :)
Hey! I am Brianna Brown. I am from Warthen, Ga. It is in Washington County which is about 30 to 45 min from Milledgeville. My concentration in the Middle Grades cohort is math. I have always loved math and I can not wait to teach it! This summer I worked at a golf course on Mondays and Fridays for 11 hours a day. I went to the beach a couple of times, but other than that I just relaxed.
Hi, my name is Maci Foster. I am from Habersham, Ga (near Helen), around two and a half hours away. My concentration in the cohort is Social Studies and I also love Language Arts. This past year I have worked as a server at Chili's. I am excited for these next two years and to begin my teaching journey!
Hi! I’m Kelly McEachern and I am from Habersham, Georgia…a small town in Northeast Georgia. I came to Georgia College knowing that I wanted to be a part of the fantastic Education program! I am specifically a part of the Middle Grades Education program with a Math concentration. I spent this summer babysitting for two families so I could make some money before school started. I also went on a couple of awesome trips and made many great memories. I am so excited to embark on this two year journey!
Hello! My name is Siobhan Fitzgerald and I'm from Rockdale County, Georgia. I have four younger brothers and a mother who is a teacher. I grew up in the public school system, and I guess somewhere along the way I fell in love with teaching. I love math! I'm excited for the next two years, and can't wait to get in the swing of things :)
Hello! My name is Haley Elise Brookshire and I am from Marietta, Ga. I have an awesome family and a cute dog named Molly! I have always wanted to be a teacher and I am so glad it is finally happening! I am a math concentration and cannot wait to see what the the next two years bring! Over the summer I took a Maymester here at GC, coached basketball with my high school coach and went on family vacation! It was a great summer, but I am glad to be back here will all of you!
Hey guys! I'm Jill Starr and I am from Jonesboro, GA. I have 3 brothers, and one sister. My sister and I were both adopted from India when we were babies. I have owned, shown, and trained horses since I was 5 years old and it is my passion. I also cannot wait until May 2014!! Over the summer, I took a Maymester and Summer 1 at GCSU then during July I spent time at home. I enjoyed a lot of barn time in, swimming, spending time with my family, and hanging out with my friends.
Hey y'all! I'm Clay Thomason. I am from a small little town in Northeast Georgia called Cleveland. I, also like many of you, are in the Middle Grades Cohort here at GC. I am a math concentration. Over the summer I worked at a summer camp in Dahlonega, known as Camp Glisson, where I worked with general ed campers, as well as special needs. I hope to learn a lot in this course this semester. So let the games begin!
Hey y'all my name is Madison Bitzer I am from Cumming, Ga. I went to Blessed Trinity Catholic High School in Roswell, Ga. I have a younger sister who is a freshman at UGA and a younger brother who is a sophomore in high school. I love to hang out at the lake and run! I worked this summer for a non-profit internship who helped families who have children with cancer. I did this same internship last summer and it was the most amazing experience ever! I met so many amazing children and volunteers! I would encourage anyone to do something like this once in their life!
Hi. I'm Alexis Farmer. I'm from Alpharetta, GA about 30 minutes north of Atlanta. I am a math concentration in the Middle Grades. This summer I go to go to Europe for a little bit, I got to go to Germany, Switzerland, France, London, Scotland and Amsterdam! It was a blast! I also worked at Winshape Camps, where I was the Event Assistant. I basically planned the first and last days of camp, nite life, activities, and dressed up in many many costumes! It was a great way to spend my summer!
Hi Everyone! I am Tynisha Harris and I am from the small town of Warrenton, Georgia. When I say small, I mean one public high school of about 250 students... small as in ONE traffic light. Warrenton is about an hour away from Milledgeville but not too many people have ever heard of it. Augusta is our nearest "big city". I am one of six kids and a first generation college student (along with my two sisters who both attend Paine College). I am one of the two cohort members who have a concentration in science. Science is a subject that I have always wanted to know more about. This summer I spent a few weeks in San Ignacio, Belize as well as the island of San Pedro. I really enjoyed learning, teaching, and exploring in Belize and would love to return some day. I spent the rest of my summer here in Milledgeville finishing up core classes.
If you made the LONG hike to customs at the new international terminal, you should be fit and ready for this course!! Sounds like an interesting summer.
Hello my name is Casey Crooms, and I am from Milledgeville, GA. I am also in the Middle Grades Cohort; my concentration is mathematics. I have two older siblings and one younger sibling. Some of my hobbies are riding horses, traveling, and taking pictures. Over the summer I rode horses and taught a couple of kids how to ride. I also worked on building a barn at my house so maybe I'll have a horse of my own one day.
Hi! I'm Nicole Bullard and I'm from Monroe, GA. I have a sister that is a freshman here at GCSU who is majoring in Biology and is in the pre-ophthalmology program. I am in the Middle Grades cohort concentrating in Math and English. When I'm not working on school work, I really enjoy hanging out at a horse barn close by here. I also have lost 42 pounds since last September and plan to lose another 25 (hopefully!) this school year. :) I have a very bubbly and positive personality and enjoy the physical sciences. I absolutely love astronomy and geology! This summer my time was spent working as a pool manager in Tucker, GA. Even though it was a stressful job, I gained a lot of great experience that will help me in the cohort and in life. It was very rewarding! Thanks for reading! :)
My name is Maggie O'Shea and I am from Woodstock, GA (north of ATL). I went to Blessed Trinity with Madison, go titans! My concentration is social studies and I love literature, so this is looking good. I also enjoy sciences, particularly anatomy and biology. NOT physics and chemistry. This summer I was the cook at a boys wilderness camp and it was a riot. My dream is to own lots of land and own retired greyhounds!
My introduction keeps disappearing... Hello! My name is Missy Rankin. I am from Johns Creek, Georgia which is located northeast of Atlanta. I am a total math nerd which is why I am a mathematics concentration. I am a member of Kappa Delta Sorority. In addition to being a teacher, in the future I would love to work for Make A Wish Foundation or any similar organization. I love to travel! My favorite places I have been are London, Hawaii, St. John and Los Angeles. During the weekend, I love to read a good book, catch up on my favorite television shows, and watch GA Tech and New York Giants football games. I have two sisters, two cats, and a goldfish. I am often shy at first, but eventually, I will open up, and you won’t be able to get me to stop talking. I am looking forward to a great first semester in the cohort.
Yes! I have also been to St. Thomas! Both islands are so beautiful! I am jealous that you went to college in St. Thomas! I don't know how I could concentrate on my school work with all the beauty outside.
