Senior Ventures Update: Daria Black

My project for Senior Ventures is focused on investigating the impact different experiences have on teenage academics. I will investigate the environmental impacts that might affect grades. This research and survey-based study will combine statistical data with psychology. I will address several topics such as the impact the pandemic, social media, anxiety, and depression have had on teenagers academically and I want to assist the students at Darlington and in the Rome area. The information I discover will be shared through a five-part podcast series titled The Environmental Influences on Teenage Academics.

I hope you enjoy listening to my first introductory episode on Spotify. Elliot Luitwieler produced the music for the podcast, and Annika Patel designed the cover art. 

The Senior Ventures leadership program is a year-long senior project built on a framework of leadership, innovation, and community engagement. The topic and the project design are chosen by an individual student or a pair of students, and the journey is guided by Darlington faculty as well as mentors in the community. Most projects fall into one of the following categories: Investigation, Performance, Entrepreneurship, and Outreach. Candidates are selected according to proposal quality, feasibility, and commitment.
