Wow... the past few days have just been unreal! I received the call on Thursday night, gave my commitment on Friday morning, and will start a week from tomorrow (Monday April 30th).
I am now a Princeton Project 55 Fellow and member of the Digital Promise team. And it's a whole new ballgame!
Here the background information:
The Princeton Project 55 Fellowship Program is a nationwide program that places recent Princeton graduates with non-profit, service-oriented organizations in order to give them experience and insights into civic engagement and public service. The placements take the form of one-year fellowships with various organizations in a variety of fields including education and public health. Moreover, each Project 55 Fellow is paired with a mentor who has also pursued a career in non-profit and is available for advice/guidance.
My organization is awesome and is based in Washington D.C.! Digital Promise - I need to use the exact language from the website:
In other words, we work to bring in the latest and most effective technologies into America's classrooms.
I'm super-pumped! I can't say too much yet, but I'll be working to support Digital Promise's mission in various ways; hopefully I'll be able to share more soon!

"Digital Promise is an independent 501(c)(3), created through Section 802 of the federal Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008, authorizing a nonprofit corporation known as the National Center for Research in Advanced Information and Digital Technologies (Digital Promise). According to the statute, Digital Promise’s purpose is "to support a comprehensive research and development program to harness the increasing capacity of advanced information and digital technologies to improve all levels of learning and education, formal and informal, in order to provide Americans with the knowledge and skills needed to compete in the global economy."
In other words, we work to bring in the latest and most effective technologies into America's classrooms.
