Show Page 8 Forum Shadowing and Internship Programs Help Develop Students Careers by Sue ODonnell As part of Westminster's career development concept, you too can be a zookeeper or at least a zookeepers shadow." Designed as a fun but educational thing to do during May term, eligible freshmen and sophomore students can shadow" a professional in a particular field of interest to gain an understanding of what really takes place in the working environment, according to Esther Doherty, career services director. Although approved last year, this coming May Term is the debut of the shadowing program. Students for the one credit-hou- r class submit requests to the career services department outlining the area they would like to shadow. In turn, a professional is located and the student spends the equivalent of two to three full days as ashadow" gaining an invaluable insight into the chosen occupation. On March 16, 18 students had for shadowing. pre-registeri- ed Booster Club Supports Soccer Continued from page 4 the season. Approximately seven games are played at home during a season.

We try and utilize the professional expertise of our many alumni and involve them as topic shadowers whenever possible." The shadow program is only offered to freshmen and sophomore students; but all is not lost for juniors and seniors, who are encouraged to participate in Westminsters cooperative educa- tion internship program. Shadowing gives students exposure, but internships are what get jobs, Doherty said. Internships provide a working experience that parallels a students academic experience. Employers today expect applicants to have work experience. Having specific work experience in your major field can be the deciding factor in whether you are hired or not Internships provide this experience. According to Doherty, students should plan classes so they leave time to gain practical working experience and plan to participate in a cooperative education internship at the beginning of their junior year. To be eligible for an internship, a student must be of junior status, maintain at least a 2.5 GPA and obtain a confidential recommendation from his or her adviser. Approximately 100 students per year participate in the internship program, almost all interns are paid by the sponsoring company and, out of the graduating class of 1983, 25 percent of the cooperative education interns were hired by the company where they worked. Over 40 companies have sponsored Westminster interns, including American Airlines, Evans and Sutherland, KUTV, Mutual Life Insurance, Salt Lake Mental Health, Utah Housing and the Veterans Hospital. Internships can also provide majors an opportunity to acquire business experience, Doherty said. An English major will increase their personal marketability with business training. The interesting thing about internships is that they are unique, Doherty said. They are very individualistic experiences that are very rewarding. Our main objective with both the shadowing and internship programs is to help students find the career path that interests them most and help them land the first of many career jobs on that path. non-busine- ss trivia questions 1.
