WAC has been very busy this summer but we have also had some fun. Part of the fun was provided by our super summer interns. At various times we have had 6 interns working in the office and we needed them. They came to us from a diverse set of colleges Centre, Hanover, U of L, UK, and IUS. All worked hard and seemed to have learned a lot. We had them working on many different tasks but mostly with the various visitor programs. They scheduled appointments, looked up directions and generally completed programs for visitors from several different countries. Along the way they overcame frustration when things didn't work out as expected - in short, they learned how to deal with life out of college. I got to hear each of their "stories," plans for the future, and goals in life. It is wonderful to hear from young people on how they will lead the world when they become the leaders of tomorrow. That's where the real fun was. Knowing that our interns care and want to make the world better. Super!!!!!
