SPRING 2009
Student: [sample] . Advisor: Tim O'Donnell.

Creating original content for departments within the association

Educational Preparation
My experience in field of communication has included taking Intro to Human
Communication and Public Speaking at Old Dominion University. I am also prepared for
this internship through my work with the UMW Alumni Center which has introduced me
to copy editing. Other courses which are relevant include Writing Workshop and Creative
Writing.

This communication internship is relevant to the ELC department because it incorporates
writing skills within a communications field. The experiences that will be learned are all
