 Good afternoon. My name is Ben Jenkins. In January 2021, I will become a first semester student in the San Jose State University MLIS program. In this video, I'd like to thank Dr. Linda Main, Dr. Cheryl Stenstrom, and the members of the Scholarship Committee for awarding me the new student scholarship for special session students. Thank you so much for giving me this tremendous award. It'll be very helpful as I begin to enter this new world of librarianship. As I pointed out in my scholarship presentation, I'm a huge archives nerd for lack of a better term. I've been ensconced in the archives of my alma mater, the University of Laverne, and I'm very eager to bring the best practices of library and information science to the administration of our archives. Many of the activities that we take part in, such as digitization of historical collections, outreach and exhibition efforts, and student internship opportunities will benefit greatly from the knowledge that I bring from the San Jose State University MLIS program with me back to the archives. I couldn't be more excited to start the prestigious program in library and information science at San Jose State University. I look forward to studying with you all and thanks once again.
