Orientation and Internship
26.01.2006
On that Monday, all of the American students had an orientation telling us more about the campus and what there was to do. Then they told us that there was this British culture & politics course that most of the students would be taking over the next two weeks before classes actually begin. However, the 12 from UNCW would be doing an internship instead, which is good and bad on it's own. The Welsh students have 2 or 3 weeks of exams so they are either still on break because they don't have exams, or revising. Tuesday came, and went to my first day as an intern. I was happy to hear that I didn't have to show up until 11am because I'm not exactly the best morning person. I work for the Ents Department which is affiliated with the student union on campus and owns four different clubs on campus and around Swansea. My job is to organize social events, book bands, and be a brainstormer of new and upcoming events. It's similar to what I've done in high school, but on a much bigger and more exciting scale. I get along really well with everyone in the office, and they've taken in me and shown me all around Swansea. It also helps that they enjoy similar music interests. ![]()
