| During this Gear Up session we answered questions about why we chose to attend Turing, what lenses we view the world through, what values drive us and if others could identify our values from our actions. Through answering these questions for myself, I realized that the reasons I decided to attend Turing overlap a lot with many of my values - inclusivness, personal growth/learning, creativity and honesty. Turing's focus on building a diverse community, their openness to share graduation/job data, their non-profit status (not focused on soley making money) attracted me to the program. Also, thinking about what lenses I see the world through and talking about this with our small groups reminded me while we have similarities, we all have different backgrounds/experiences that influence how we see and experience the world and this program. This is something we (our cohort) should keep in mind and I think we do a good job of being open to other points of view. |
