~from intern Katie Haggstrom

Name: Tiffany Akers [I ran into Tiffany in the basement of Eddy in the Writing Center].

What is your major/program in the English Department?
I am a first year TEFL/TESL graduate student.

How do you spend more of your time in Eddy Hall?
Most of my time in Eddy is spent working in the Writing Center.

As a TEFL/TESL student, where else do you spend a lot of your time, if you’re not in Eddy?
As a full-time grad student working two jobs and freelance copy-editing, I spend copious amounts of time in my home or the library between commitments. I also enjoy volunteering with INTO and working on professional development actives around Colorado. When I’m not married to my career/studies, I am committed to rugby. So, I’m either in Boulder for practice or traveling for games/tournaments.

Describe Eddy Hall in one word.
Home.

Finally, what’s your favorite book, poem, quote, lyric, genre, author?
Wow, this is really hard to decide!!

• Reading romance novels from the authors Terry Spear and Karen Moning is a guilty pleasure.
• I love classics, such as The Odyssey and The Count of Monte Cristo.
