 Good morning, you Miss students Instagram. My name is Emma. I am a first-year Master of Public Policy student at the Ford School here at the U of M And I'm taking over the Instagram this week Stay tuned for some fun content and for what a week in my life looks like Hello, you miss students. I hope everyone's had a great day today I got a lot of work done after my econ study session at Ford and now I am home And I'm going to make myself a nice dinner. I really enjoy cooking for myself at the end of a long day And just making sure I am sustained happy and healthy Tonight's recipe is brought to us by my New York Times cooking account provided by Michigan here I'm super excited for this one. I like it a lot and I will be sure to show you all the final product See you in a bit Hey folks So I am arrested and then and I'm just doing a little bit of work And I think that's what the rest of my night's gonna look like so I'm gonna sign off for the night We've got a big week of exams coming up so sleep well get some good rest take care of yourselves And I will see you all tomorrow morning. Good night Good morning, you miss students. Happy Monday. Happy first day of finals week I hope everyone slept well and woke up feeling good I've got a busy day full of studying ahead so Let's opt to it Good morning, you miss students. Happy Tuesday. I hope everyone's having a good finals week and taking good care of themselves as we get further into it Today it's just another day full of studying. I'm meeting with my study group. I've got some tutoring It's gonna be some good stuff and also keep asking questions. I'll repopulate the box here But yeah, let me know what you want to know you can ask about the MPP program You can ask about study tips. You can you know ask me stuff Yeah, but love to answer so See all today. So this is a great question. I will say It's kind of hard to pick just one You know, there's so much great curriculum to Choose from and with the MPP program. We have 50% of our program that is Core requirements, which is a lot of like practical skills. So it's really helpful stuff But then the other 50% of the degree is elective, which is really cool So we get to really kind of tailored to what we want and to what our interests are But I think more than anything the community is really where it's out for me our faculty and staff are super knowledgeable and are very accessible, but I think it comes down to my peers really Everybody comes from so many different places backgrounds interests But we all have in common that we want to create a positive change in the world And I think that's a really great community to get to be a part of. Hello, everybody. I hope everybody's had a good day I got home about two two and a half hours ago from my study group meeting at Ford and then I made dinner Decompressed a little bit and now I'm back to some homework for a few more hours probably I Know it's not been the most exciting week, but that's finals week for us. I guess I hope everybody's taking care of themselves Doing well on their finals and Yeah, that's all let me know if there's anything you want to know. Otherwise, I'll be here doing my work Thank you for this question and shout out to one of my lovely friends for my cohort for asking it So I chose to pursue a public policy in grad school Mainly because I studied political science and undergrad and I really loved it But upon graduation from undergrad I ended up in a completely different field doing different work And I stayed there for a while But while the role I was in was mostly administrative. I knew I didn't want to get deeper into that field It just wasn't really the place for me So fortunately I was able to leave But I knew that I wasn't going to be able to just leave without getting more relevant experience I wanted to build myself up in terms of my skills and practical application So I was able to come here where I knew I'd get a lot of that experience and I'm very happy to be doing what I'm doing now And with that I'm going to sign off for the night I hope everybody had a great day and that everything is going well with finals I hope that everyone's taking good care of themselves and Preparing for more days of finals ahead And got another big day tomorrow full of studying and tutoring. So I will see you guys tomorrow. Sleep well Good morning, you miss students. Happy Wednesday. We're about halfway through finals week at this point So I hope you're all being kind to yourselves.
