daily nebraskan page 11 tuesday, fcbruary 19, 1980 Internships Internships provide the link between academic know, ledge and practical experience, according to Betty Carpenter, coordinator of internships at the Centennial Educational Program. "I believe that the academic kinds of things that one learns are only good if you can make some kind of connection with the real world, Carpenter said. "Basically, that's what an internship provides." Students involved in the program are expected to meet weekly with a Centennial Fellow sponsor, she said. Carpenter said that meeting with the sponsor helps students to relate academics to the practical situations, adding that if one did only the field work, one could get lost in minute details. The sponsor helps to make an intellectual connection and points the student to other sources to see how the provide UNL students with experience parts of a job fit together, Carpenter said. For instance, a political science student could structure an internship project around a political campaign. Carpenter said the campaigning process makes more sense to a student in the center of the process. This, she added, lets the student see the practical purpose behind the work, such as getting a candidate elected. Carpenter said the program, which began three years ago, caters to no particular field. She said the Centennial internship program is more flexible than programs in other departments because Centennial internships are structured more creatively. There are several agencies which make' internships available, including the City Parks and Recreation Dept., Planned Parenthood and the Lincoln Action Program. Carpenter said about eight students participate in the Husker gymnasts edge Oklahoma By Joni Kramer The UNL men's gymnastics team outscored the Uni versity of Oklahoma 278.90 to 276.95 and captured first place in every event but one in a dual meet Sunday in Norman. Husker Steve Elliott won the floor exercise, Jim Har tung won the still rings and Phil Cahoy placed first in the pommel horse, the parallel bars and the high bar. Hartung won the all-around competition with a score of 57.25. Cahoy took second in the all-around with a 56.80. The only Sooner to win in individual competition was Les Moore, who edged Elliott 9.85 to 9.80 in the vault. As well as finishing one-two in the Oklahoma dual, Hartung and Cahoy took first and second respectively in the all-around competition at the Mardi Gras Invitational in Baton Rouge Friday night. Head Gymnastics Coach Francis Allen attributes the .team's perfect season record to its superior individual members. i feel our personnel is better than that of Oklahoma's. We have Hartung and Cahoy, as well as some other good athletes," Allen said. "We perform well, arid we're going to have to give 100 percent to win a National champion ship. At Oklahoma we performed at about 85-90 percent." Allen also said he feels the push of competition from, teams such as Oklahoma and Iowa State, has helped UNL maintain an undefeated season, and will prove beneficial at the Big Eight meet. According to Allen, Oklahoma is a very good team, and they may have won if Nebraska hadn't been on top of things. However, he said there may have been more pres sure from the judges, rather than from the Oklahoma gymnasts. "The judges were tight in their scoring, resulting in pressure on the gymnasts for a good performance," Allen said. - QUICK... where can you save lotsa $$$ every Tuesday?
