Hey Guys! I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as the new History Day intern. My name is Mandy Kritzeck, I’m a student in the Cooperstown Graduate Program, graduating this May(!) and a former Minnesota History Day-er. Yes, that’s right - I traded in one snowy arctic tundra…for another snowy arctic tundra, but I love it! I am an absolute history nerd and I love History Day because I believe it is the perfect introduction for students into looking at the past in an interesting and engaging way.
I’m excited to be more involved with the program this year (you may or may not recall the History Day Minute Men videos from last year), and along with assisting in organizing the state competition, I am working on making video highlights of the amazing things that New York students are doing! At Minnesota, I was in charge of bringing the fun to the state competition; so look forward to new student activity areas, and a tell-all History Day confessional booth!
I’m looking forward to a great 2011 season!
