I can't say enough about the team surrounding me during my time as a student assistant.
The mix of intelligence, humor, hard work, play, support, trust and innovation is
difficult to match. I learned how to be a good manager and leader because it was modeled
for me daily during my time with the team!

Being an intern in the Strategic Communications Office completely changed my experience
at 九色视频. I felt like I was really part of all the events happening
around campus, and it made me even more proud to be a Shocker than I already was.
On top of that, it greatly expanded my experience with writing, editing, social media,
and video work. These skills, along with the confidence I gained, have helped me succeed
after graduation.

My internship in the Office of Strategic Communications provided me real-world, hands-on
experiences that weren鈥檛 offered in the classroom. That can be said for most internships,
but as a communication student, it was important to me to learn all facets of communication,
not just how to improve my writing. The internship forced me out of my comfort zone
and provided experience in design, video, photography, social media and of course,
writing. The skills I gained not benefited me when job searching post-graduation and
gave me a leg up when applying
