\u201cAt SED\u2019s Higher Education Program, we learn both theory and practice. I don\u2019t think anything could exemplify that better than my Graduate Assistantship in Student Affairs. Every day, I find new ways to apply what I\u2019m learning in the classroom to what I\u2019m working on at the office. Research, history, and law all have lessons that I use on a daily basis. Beyond that, I\u2019ve learned the inner workings of the Residence Life and had numerous staff members \u2018take me under their wing.\u2019 It seems like every day, someone has more advice for the Graduate Assistant!\u201d<\/address>\n
