Two of my students from this past fall semester have landed internships with the community organizations they began working with during their LANG 120 service-learning project.
Samantha Singer is continuing her work with LEAF in Schools & Streets.

Emily Lindesmith is interning at a program called Our Circle that is run by ABCCM. She writes, "[t]he program is a part of a study for the Department of Labor," the purpose being to determine if vocational programs are more effective when participants receive a 'circle' of mentors." Emily has also volunteered to serve as a liaison between service-learning classes at UNCA and ABCCM in attempt to strengthen and sustain a working partnership between the two organizations.
