NOELLE DE JESUS:
I personally have

00:00:02.340 --> 00:00:04.710 align:middle line:84%
had mental health
struggles all of my life,

00:00:04.710 --> 00:00:07.650 align:middle line:84%
and I've always
felt that in order

00:00:07.650 --> 00:00:11.430 align:middle line:84%
to understand myself and better
understand other psychology

00:00:11.430 --> 00:00:13.390 align:middle line:90%
was a good way to get there.

00:00:13.390 --> 00:00:16.020 align:middle line:84%
My name is Noelle de Jesus
and I'm a psychology major

00:00:16.020 --> 00:00:16.878 align:middle line:90%
at Chaffey College.

00:00:16.878 --> 00:00:18.420 align:middle line:84%
MARIA FITZPATRICK:
What I really like

00:00:18.420 --> 00:00:20.250 align:middle line:84%
about teaching at
Chaffey College

00:00:20.250 --> 00:00:22.650 align:middle line:84%
is the diversity
of the students.

00:00:22.650 --> 00:00:26.490 align:middle line:84%
I meet so many wonderful
people from all different walks

00:00:26.490 --> 00:00:29.460 align:middle line:84%
of life, all kinds of
ages, all kinds of reasons

00:00:29.460 --> 00:00:31.020 align:middle line:90%
for being here at Chaffey.

00:00:31.020 --> 00:00:34.560 align:middle line:84%
And I like how Chaffey
really concentrates and cares

00:00:34.560 --> 00:00:36.250 align:middle line:90%
about the success of students.

00:00:36.250 --> 00:00:39.060 align:middle line:84%
My name is Dr. Maria
Fitzpatrick and I

00:00:39.060 --> 00:00:41.190 align:middle line:84%
am in the Psychology
Department at Chaffey.

00:00:41.190 --> 00:00:43.590 align:middle line:84%
NOELLE DE JESUS:
I've lost friends

00:00:43.590 --> 00:00:45.060 align:middle line:90%
to mental health struggles.

00:00:45.060 --> 00:00:47.700 align:middle line:84%
I've seen it
firsthand what things

00:00:47.700 --> 00:00:51.990 align:middle line:84%
like grief, depression, anxiety,
PTSD can do to a person.

00:00:51.990 --> 00:00:57.480 align:middle line:84%
And I want to educate and
I want to help and really

00:00:57.480 --> 00:01:00.245 align:middle line:84%
delve in deep to why people
are the way that they are.

00:01:00.245 --> 00:01:01.620 align:middle line:84%
MARIA FITZPATRICK:
Psychology can

00:01:01.620 --> 00:01:03.840 align:middle line:90%
lead to a number of careers.

00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:07.800 align:middle line:90%
Counseling, therapy, research.

00:01:07.800 --> 00:01:10.290 align:middle line:84%
But beyond that,
psychology applies

00:01:10.290 --> 00:01:14.940 align:middle line:84%
to things like law,
medicine, nursing, business.

00:01:14.940 --> 00:01:17.130 align:middle line:84%
It's a very, very
versatile choice

00:01:17.130 --> 00:01:19.110 align:middle line:84%
and it can apply
to almost anything.

00:01:19.110 --> 00:01:21.420 align:middle line:84%
NOELLE DE JESUS: You're
not just there to learn,

00:01:21.420 --> 00:01:26.460 align:middle line:84%
but you're also there to
succeed and meet people and have

00:01:26.460 --> 00:01:27.760 align:middle line:90%
different perspectives.

00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.570 align:middle line:84%
And I think that Professor
Maria Fitzpatrick,

00:01:30.570 --> 00:01:34.763 align:middle line:84%
she does a great job at
making everybody feel welcome.

00:01:34.763 --> 00:01:36.180 align:middle line:84%
MARIA FITZPATRICK:
So with Noelle,

00:01:36.180 --> 00:01:38.580 align:middle line:84%
we do frequently
talk about maybe

00:01:38.580 --> 00:01:41.550 align:middle line:84%
things that we were covering
in the class, but beyond that,

00:01:41.550 --> 00:01:45.630 align:middle line:84%
career advising, ideas for
schools to transfer to.

00:01:45.630 --> 00:01:49.200 align:middle line:84%
And it's really wonderful
to bring my experience

00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.320 align:middle line:84%
and knowledge and to pass
that on to my students.

00:01:52.320 --> 00:01:54.570 align:middle line:84%
NOELLE DE JESUS:
Maria Fitzpatrick.

00:01:54.570 --> 00:01:57.630 align:middle line:84%
Genuinely I'm always
excited to go to her class.

00:01:57.630 --> 00:01:58.530 align:middle line:90%
She's my favorite.

00:01:58.530 --> 00:02:01.590 align:middle line:84%
I am the most
engaged in her class.

00:02:01.590 --> 00:02:05.240 align:middle line:90%
