by Anna Bujas-Crisostomo, for the Fall 2020 Symposium on Community Engaged Scholarship.
Being constantly online and unable to meet people in person has created a unique set of challenges that many of this generation of students have had to overcome. Symposium Theme: Building authentic relationships in this unique time.
This project was part of Abbie Weiner’s course, COMM 1041: Interpersonal Communication. Students in this course learn the theories and principles of interpersonal communication while engaging in service-learning with local after-school programs, job training programs, and other service organizations.

Hey Ana! Thanks for your presentation. I do wonder what will be the preferred mode of communication as we moved forward and how we will adapt to multiple means of communication or "back to normal." I think the virtual settings allow for more folks to engage but I wonder, as you mentioned, if it feels like it is meaningful and impactful. As you continue to work with YWCA I'd love to hear their thoughts on virtual communications.
