Focus on the Nation

Every year Saint Leo, along with many other Universities, host an event called Focus on the Nation. Classes have alternate schedules so that students are able to partake in the presentations as well as watch other students and faculty present on issues regarding global warming, social issues etc. My Mass Media in Society class decided to do our part and put together a presentation for the event. We worked on the project regarding concerns in the area of Rwanda. We had to do this presentation in front of faculty, staff and students! Talk about nerve racking. I thought that I would for sure pass out in front of everyone. However I got through it and we received a lot of positive feedback! Our class did a great job getting the message out their about Rwanda as well as worked on our public speaking fears!!!
It was really nice to see how much support we were given by our peers and others.

We made a food table for our guests!

My presentation, about to pass out with fear!

My fabulous class and Dr. Ostrenko!
