Student Representative's Report

Marjorie Foster, Student Representative

Support The Gap

Student members are an integral component of SCRID and we want your input to enhance the professionalism, diversity, integrity and growth of the interpreting field.

The Student Representative Committee’s goals:

Establish a network between local Interpreter Training Programs (ITP's) and SCRID.
Keep ITP students engaged in SCRID activities and aware of changes in the interpreting field affecting them and their future career.
Provide an opportunity for students to inform SCRID about their ITP's and sharing their knowledge throughout their time in training.

Support the Gap - This SCRID sponsored event brought resources together assiting pre-certified interpreters achieve their goal of certification. This event included a panel of interpreters for a questions and answer session, employment opportunities, and networking with students and professionals.

Most of the Colleges and Universities have started their semesters and many are well on their way to midterms.

We have new Student Representatives who stepped up to the challenge after attending last months Face-to-Face meeting at Pierce College. I thank them

for taken on this extra responsibility and look forward to hearing what is happening at their perspective colleges.

Those students are from the following colleges:

California State University Northridge - Danica Dicus & Michael Luna

Los Angeles Pierce College - Jeffrey Vandenburg

Riverside Community College - Zachary Johnson

I am still on the search for Representatives from:

Antelope Valley College

Mt San Antonio College

Golden West College

El Camino College

I am considering starting a FaceBook Student Page to spark interest in joining SCRID and getting involved with their local governing body. If the mountain won't come to Mohammad, so to speak... I want the Boards thoughts and or concerns on the matter.
