Today was day one at my internship. I quickly discovered that this is going to be a 'what you make it' experience. The people in charge do not ask you to do anything, do not expect you to do anything. It is pretty much: if you want the experience, here it is. If you want to waste your time playing spider solitaire for hours on end, here it is.
I was quick to mention my ambitions of becoming a journalist and writing news for them. I wrote a 15second reader which, after being heavily edited, was aired on the nightly newscast.
The other intern was an interesting find. He is a mass communication major who seems ecstatic to sit and answer phones. Good for him.
