INTERNSHIP FAIR The Internship Fair took place on Wednesday October 8, 1 986 in Post Hall. This highly publicized event drew out many students and about 1 5 employers. “The purpose of the Internship Fair is to provide students with an opportunity to ex- plore careers and Internship opportunities in the Washington. D.C. area, states Lucy Hoffman, coordinator of career planning. Ms. Hoffman goes on to say that both students and the organization representa- tives are benefited by the fair. The represen- tatives are eager to meet students and hire them as interns or even part-time em- ployees.” Internships are extremely important to a student’s future career. Internships often lead to a permanent position in a specific field. They are rewarding jobs which also give credit toward the student ' s degree. All in all, the Internship Fair was a great success. It generated a lot of interest out of the students and gave them the chance to talk with different representatives of various fields. 16 Internship Fair
