Just Another Day at the Office... A crucial part to every student's education is a chance to experience firsthand what they spend hours learning about in classrooms and reading about in text books. Internships give students the opportunity to explore their chosen fields. Hundreds of companies, corporations, and organizations all across the nation open their doors to Temple students who want to further their education outside of the classroom. Even when students are not able to leave campus for their internship, Temple University itself can provide on-campus job experience. Senior Religion major George Keddie gained invaluable experience while working for Temple. Since I aspire to be a professor of religion, working as a liaison for the Religion Department and as a tutor for the Intellectual Heritage Department has familiarized me with the requirements, responsibilities, and initiatives of faculty members as well as the needs and troubles of students, said Keddie. Due to Temple's prime location, size, and credibility, students sporting the Temple T on their resume never have to go far to be able to experience the career they have been working towards. - Leah Stoner Photo courtesy of Ally Martielli HELPING HANDS Grace Obando prepares for a Boyz II Men concert at Penn's Landing during her internship with Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation PART OF THE TEAM Ally Martelli takes a picture with Rob Hill during her internship at the Wachovia Center.
