Day 1

     So for the first day of my internship, I met a few of the other interns. For some reason their names escape me, I will find out their names and type them in a later entry. Now back on track. Once I walked in the door and said hello it was time to work. Amy brought me to the room I was going to be working on and explained that she needed me to get familiarized with the NCSAM (National Campus Safety Awareness Month) program that was created for last year.
      NCSAM NCSAM received the unanimous support of Congress in 2008. Each September, the Clery Center for Security On Campus partners with colleges, universities, and other agencies to offer campus safety programming.NCSAM received the unanimous support of Congress in 2008.

     Then I was to create a word document or hand written account of what I thought of the program and if there are any changes that could be made in order to reach the students and schools better. Instead of hand writing it I decided to create a word document. Since I was only there for a couple of hours I spent the day reading all of the information and writing down any criticisms/thoughts I had about the program. Then I left and went home.
     All in all I felt that it was a good two hours spent. I do wish that there had not been so much reading because it was a lot of information to process. However, since my title is development and outreach intern it is part of the job. Also since I am going to be helping create the program for NCSAM for this year it is important for me to get caught up so I am able to help in the planing.
