Ana Cristina Pratas's insight:
- Your colleagues think you’re crazy, but the students think you’re awesome.
- You’re exhausted.
- If you left your institution tomorrow, they’d be screwed.
- Your inspiration comes from your twitter feed, blogs and experiences “in the wild” much more often than it does from a textbook or trade journal.
- You’re passionately curious.
- You juggle anywhere between 1-3 side projects at any given time.
- Your initiatives cannot be explained in one or two words (ie. it’s not just a weekend program for students, it’s a freakin’ EPIC experience…let me tell you more about it)
- Your job is a platform. It’s not just a job, it’s a way for you to inspire others and create things.
- You have an opinion about important matters, ideas and issues…and you share it.
- You’re working with offices on campus that no one in your department has worked with.
- Your office is not perfectly neat at all times.
- You stay late, not because you have to, but because this stuff is so cool and you’re in the zone.
- You’re not afraid of the path less traveled no matter how messy it might be.
- You fail at least once a day/week/month/semester–whatever it is you’re failing, and it’s because you take risks.
- At the core, you believe in students and they drive all that you do.
