Overall, including both the portfolio and the portfolio conversation, how well do you feel you
demonstrated accomplishment of the SDA program’s learning outcomes:

Complete Accomplishment 5 4 3 2 1 Minimal Accomplishment

Comments:

I believe through my portfolio, I have been able to demonstrate understanding of each of the learning
outcomes and shown growth and learning in each area. Through my artifacts and Learning Outcome
Narratives, I have demonstrated my learning in all the Learning Outcomes.

In particular, this process has given me the opportunity to really understand and reflect on the impact
that my graduate school experience has been for me and given me the opportunity to understand the
amount of gratitude I have for those that have supported me.

In this process, three lesson that I have learned in this experience have been 1) that understanding
my own accomplishments isn’t just celebrating me but celebrating those that have helped me be
successful, 2) that being authentic isn’t complicated, and 3) that I do have the ability and power to go
grow because of the community and connections that continue to support me.

Going forward, I am excited to continue to understand these lessons and put them into practice as a
Student Affairs Professional. Thank you for this opportunity and pushing me to engage with a process
that has allowed me to reflect in ways I hadn’t before.

Please also complete the assessment of specific learning outcomes on the reverse side.
