Alyssa Allyn is originally from Culver, Indiana, but is now a resident of Michigan. During her time at Ball State she majored in English with a concentration in Creative Writing and a minor in Graphic Arts. She graduated in May 2014. Since graduating, she’s moved to Interlochen, Michigan and is now in her second year as a Hall Counselor. Her first year she looked after 37 teenage girls and 1 boy, and this year she looks after 17 teenage boys.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    You\u2019re working in Michigan at the <\/b>Interlochen Arts Academy <\/b><\/a>boarding high school as a <\/b>Hall Counselor<\/b><\/a>. <\/b>Are you thinking about a career in Student Affairs or Residence Life? How has your degree helped you in the work that you do?<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    When I first started working at Interlochen, it was purely a transition job. I had never really thought of myself as someone who would work in Student Affairs, but the more time I spend with these students and the longer I stay\u00a0at Interlochen, I can\u2019t imagine not working in Student Affairs, especially here. I\u2019ve always been\u00a0a people person, and these past two years I\u2019ve been able to let myself learn and grow into a more confident leadership role. I find myself passionate about what I get to do every day. I get to find different ways to make the experience at Interlochen better for our students, and catch a tiny snapshot of their lives as they pass through high school. I get to be that embarrassing “parent\u201d at performances. It\u2019s one of the hardest yet\u00a0easiest jobs I\u2019ve ever had. I\u2019ve unexpectedly fallen in love with it. It doesn\u2019t even feel like a job!<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    My degree has helped in the following ways:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    • Writing grade reports about each of my 17 students 4 times a year (68 total). They all have to be individualized and different each time.<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Editing and helping kids think through college applications\/essays,<\/span>\u00a0scholarship essays, and<\/span>\u00a0class essays, poems, short stories<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Writing\/reading daily emails – more than I would care to count<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Interacting with parents, other faculty, and staff via email daily<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Teaching students how to write professional emails and have professional interactions by demonstration<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Being in high-level stress situations and needing to get my point across clearly and concisely<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Connecting with them about reading their art in front of people and having people hear what they have to say<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      <\/p>\n

      2. What does your typical day look like?<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n

      There\u2019s no such thing as a typical day for me right now, but that would be nice. Most days, I don\u2019t start work until 4:00pm because most nights I\u2019m working until 12:00am and I\u2019m not in bed until 1:30am. At 4:00pm, I most likely start a desk shift, which means answering parent phone calls, replying to emails, signing students off campus, and much more. Around 6:00pm I get off to grab dinner in the cafeteria where I\u2019ll be able to see some of my kids, probably for the first time that day. Up next, if it\u2019s Monday, I\u2019ll do room inspections which is exactly what it sounds like–making sure that all 17 of my boys have cleaned their rooms that week. Most of the time I\u2019m very proud. Then from 9:00pm-12:00am I will sit in the lobby and close my building for the night. It\u2019s my favorite part of the day because this is when I get to see and talk to all of my kids. I get to hear how their days were, if they passed their tests, how their pre-screenings went, and everything in between. The lobby will close at 11:00pm and one of the students will come to clean it, they\u2019ll all go to bed, and I will walk around checking lights out at 12:00am. If I\u2019m lucky, no one needed to be taken to urgent care that day, then it\u2019s off to bed to do something\u00a0similar the next day.<\/p>\n

      3. Was there a particular class in the English major or a particular faculty member who influenced you?<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

      I recently found the folder on my computer with all of my papers I\u2019d written in college and got a good couple of laughs out of what I read through. After workshops, I had a couple of professors ask me, \u201cAre you okay, is everything alright at home?\u201d and I never really understood why. After re-reading my stuff\u00a0I see: I wrote some dark things in college. <\/span><\/p>\n

      Among all of that, I found a paper for Rai Peterson\u2019s ENG347. It was supposed to be a literary analysis, but somewhere along the lines I missed the mark. I read <\/span>The Sirens of Titan<\/span><\/i> by Kurt Vonnegut and I had worked my butt off writing the\u00a0paper because I was so in love with it (that book is now one of my favorites). When I got the grade back I was devastated. But long story short, even though I missed the mark, something in me was still unabashedly proud of that paper and the ideas and words I put into it. That’s something that I\u2019ve carried with me since. I try to remind myself to be confident in my heart and gut everyday. Nearly failing that paper taught me that lesson,\u00a0and Rai opened my eyes to the world of books in a whole other way. I\u2019m forever thankful for that.<\/span><\/p>\n

      4. Do you have any advice for English majors who are trying to figure out what comes next in their lives? What advice do you have if they\u2019d like to do something like what you\u2019re doing now?<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

      Someone told me last year, \u201cStop thinking about what you are going to do next and focus on how you can make where you are right now the best it can be for you, and everyone else around you.\u201d This has been my silent reminder when I start to doubt myself and start to say, \u201cBut what about my degree?\u201d I think it\u2019s really important to know where you want to go, but you should be open to the way you\u2019re going to get there. I’ve learned more about myself and who I want to be professionally and as a human being in general from working with teenagers these past two years. I wouldn\u2019t trade it for the world. It\u2019s kind of amazing what you can learn and where you can learn it from when you\u2019re not even expecting it! Just be open to all of it, every experience and interaction. It\u2019s all significant, you just might not know it yet.<\/p>\n
