Angela Schmiede, Ph.D. is the Vice President for Student Success and Strategic Planning at Menlo College in Silicon Valley, California. Angela is one of the early champions of integrating experiential learning programs into the curriculum, something she has done successfully at Vanderbilt University, Stanford University, and most recently at Menlo College, where she started as Director of Internships and Career Services and has since moved up to Vice President.
As such, Angela is our first guest who is not currently the leader of a career services office, but rather oversees the Student Success and Strategic Planning division which encompasses the internship and career services office as well as multiple other complementary departments.
In this episode, we discuss how Angela first became interested in building service learning and experiential learning programs, the Servant Leadership and Shared Equity Leadership models she's adopted and relies on, how serving as WSCUC Accreditation Liaison Officer has informed her perspective on the role of career services, why the ability to reframe is crucial to success in multiple dimensions, and so much more!
Fun Fact: Angela used to be my direct supervisor when I worked at Menlo College. I learned and continue to learn so much from her.
