WELCOME!
Here's a little about me...
Welcome to my e-portfolio for the Presidential Leadership Academy. My name is Isabella Teti, a Schreyer Honors Scholar double majoring in Political Science and Women's, Gender & Sexuality Studies. My experience in the Academy greatly developed my leadership skills as an advocate, guided me as I navigated the complicated world of social justice, and taught me to think critically about some of the most pressing issues of our time. I hope you enjoy perusing my portfolio and learning more about my experience with the PLA!
ACADEMICS AND EXTRACURRICULARS
Portfolio of Work
My experience at Penn State has forever changed me, allowed me to grow intellectually and taught me how to manage my many projects.
POLICY PAPER
My fellow group members and I spent months researching and perfecting a policy paper based on the theme of Fairness. Together we created a bilingual integration pilot program for Pennsylvania elementary schools to implement, which was taken up by a member of PA House of Representatives.
BLOGGING
Throughout the PLA I wrote and shared blogs on various topics with my fellow classmates. My work explores many topics, including my work in politics and environmental sustainability. To read some of my most popular blogs, follow the links below!
