		<title>Enter frame of mind…</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just a few musings for a Saturday night while on duty. I’m sure that I’ll get more wordy as time goes on. Going to take a while to get adjusted to the process of blogging again. I enjoy it but it’s definitely been a while.Wow! It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here, four<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/09/enter-frame-of-mind/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

		<title>Phew! A review of Year 1.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t believe it&#8217;s been almost one month since my last post. I woke up one day this week and realized that my first year of graduate school is over and that I have a lot of work both ahead of me and behind of me. It&#8217;s interesting to think of how much I have<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/05/phew-did-that-just-happen/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m an activator. It&#8217;s what I do. With all of the hype that I&#8217;ve been hearing about regarding StrengthsQuest, I decided to go back and take a deeper look at my results from the beginning of the year. I vaguely remembered them from the beginning of the year but thought it was worth taking a<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/04/im-an-activator/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

		<title>Campus Life @ Ivy Tech</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So my practicum this semester, I&#8217;m working at Ivy Tech Community College-Central Indiana. It&#8217;s provided me some really great experiences with diverse populations of students that I certainly don&#8217;t get exposure to at DePauw. I really like the exposure to the different range of students that are at the institution because it provides me with<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/04/campus-life-ivy-tech/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

		<title>How twitter helped me land a summer internship</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Never underestimate the power of twitter. I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s any big secret that I love twitter. If you&#8217;re reading this, you most likely saw this linked on my profile or on #sachat, #sagrad, or #sagrow. It has surpassed facebook as my favorite social media site. It is such a wonderful place to connect and<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/04/poweroftwitter/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

		<title>SA Grad Programs &amp; Technology, ABC’s Greek + Identity Development, and more.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love learning and love to connect what I&#8217;m learning with other areas of life. I guess it&#8217;s the accomodater in me. Lately there has been an ongoing conversation about how we&#8217;re incorporating technology as a competency in student affairs. I think that in today&#8217;s day and age, we can&#8217;t ignore that technology influences nearly<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/04/gradprogramidentitydevelopment/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

		<title>Happy people doing happy things…</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As a student, I often was very frustrated with how universities would distribute information through webpages so I&#8217;ve recently been on a tangent to improve the departmental webpage of my office for which I&#8217;m now responsible. This semester I&#8217;ve been in Collegiate Environments with @willbarratt and he asked us to examine other institutions websites and compare<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/04/happy-people-doing-happy-things/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

Either way, I thought I&#8217;d share some of my favorite tech tools that help to make my life a little easier every day. I really like all of these services and they each have<a href="http://jordantoy.com/2011/04/5-free-technologies-for-the-student-affairs-grad/"> <br /><br /> (More)…</a>]]></description>

Luckily, students are just returning to campus from spring break so it has been relatively quiet.

		<title>Thesis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve decided that I&#8217;m officially going to embark on the journey of writing a thesis. I really want a greater understanding of how interactions on social media sites like facebook.com are affecting interpersonal relationships between students on campus and within residence halls.
