“I applied for this internship with the intention to better understand the inner workings of state government,” Morris said. “During the internship, I learned about the extensive processes that go into passing new laws. This was a very educational experience for me and I am certain that it will benefit my future endeavors.”

“The experiences and connections made by Chantz as he interns will help him pursue his career aspirations,” Lucas said. “As a communications intern, he is further developing skills in writing, graphic design, audio and video recording, and other areas. This will undoubtedly benefit him going forward.”
