HHD News to Use and Share
Call for nominations—The Panetta Congressional Internship: This is from Elizabeth Adams, AVP Student Success, “One CSUN student is chosen each Spring to participate in the fall intern program which sends the student to Washington to work for a member of the California Congressional delegation. A scholarship covers all expenses. This has always been a wonderful opportunity for a student (one from each CSU campus) and all of our interns have returned with wonderful things to say. Please share this widely with faculty and students and encourage students to apply.”
- Deadline: Friday February 23, 2016 by 4 p.m. to the Undergraduate Studies office (UN 215, MD 8203).
