Internships:
One warm-up for
the job marathon
Amv student graduating in the near fu
ture knows the spine-chilling paradox
of the working world: In order to get
a job, you must have experience. In order to get
experience, you must have a job.
The frustration felt by that paradox is
equaled only by frustration in the lack of hands
on experience offered by college classes. How
can this invaluable experience be obtained so
the sparkle of graduation will not be overshad
owed by unemployment? One option is the in
ternship program at the Career Planning and
Placement Service.
Juniors and seniors in the College of Arts and
Sciences can work with about 20 organizations
around the area, which offer upper-division
credit and experience that could help students
find a job upon graduation.
"Internships are the only way to go,” said
John Crenshaw, coordinator of the CPPS in
ternship program and intern with the Bach Fes
tival.
Crenshaw, a senior majoring in English, han
dles the promotional and administrative aspects
of the internship program. By distributing flyers
around campus to advertise internships and cut
costs of other advertising, the internship pro
gram saw a rise last term in the number of inter
ested students.
CPPS offers an orientation meeting in the
middle of each term, designed to match students
and organizations for the following term. Each
student can sign up tor two interviews, and one
alternate interview if the other two do not work
out.
Students also have the option of creating
their own internship. Elizabeth Gallagher, a sc

nior majoring in English, developed her own in
ternship, receiving upper-division credit as a
camera operator for KEZI-TV news.
Gallagher went hunting on her own, inquir
ing to several places before she struck a deal
with h'E/1. She took her proposal to CPPS ansi
asked for approval.
Gallagher said she wants to be a film director
and believes this internship will provide the ex
perience needed to successfully direct.
“For the field 1 want to go into, this intern
ship teaches me about 400 of the 500 things 1
need to know," Gallagher said. “You get your
feet wet and develop some networking."
Virginia Ross, a senior majoring in psycholo
gy, is helping to organize the Small Business
Celebration to be held in May, sponsored by
the Eugene City Planning Department. Ross
found her internship by working with Gina
Houston, a career counselor at CPPS.
“To work as a one-on-one psychologist, 1
would need to go on to a masters or even a
Ph.D.,” Ross said. “This internship provides a
great baseline for work."
Ross said she believes the internship program
helps a student in many other ways, besides just
providing credit and experience. She said in
ternships can help build confidence, develop
verbal and writing skills and help develop the
student's ability to
converse freely with
business managers.
Crenshaw also be
lieves it is hard to (or
students in college to
communicate with
professionals. “Intern
ships allow that com
munication and help
the professionals in
wanting to open up,"
Ross said.
"I am really pleased
with my experience. It
helps not only the
community, but also
the intern."

"1 hope to be working later with similar issues

ship for more than one term. Students are ex
peered to do worksheets for ( TPS and midterms
and papers appropriate to their internship.
