monday, September 14, 1981 page 2 daily nebraskan Education . . . Continued from Page 1 Keaschall worked at the Nebraska Department of Wel fare in the spring of 1980. She researched the Vietnamese and Cambodian refugees, recording where they found homes in Nebraska and what help they were receiving from various government and social services. The research involved mail surveys, telephone and one-to-one interviews. For her written project, KeaschaU compiled a resource booklet about the refugees. "It's interesting to see how government agencies really work,' she said. "You learn things in an agency that you don't in a classroom. Being in a professional setting, you learn a lot more. She said some agencies have room for four or five interns. "A lot of community agencies are real surprised at the value of students, she said. "Some interns can stay on two to four semesters," she said. "The internship might lead to a part-time job or a full-time job later." Students who would like internships next semester should start looking for one by November, KeaschaU said. They can get information about the program at the union office, then go to the Oldfather office to finish the place ment, she said. Students can come to the union office door and sign up for an appointment or drop in, KeaschaU said. In Oldfather 1218, students look through notebooks of job descriptions and match their interests with the jobs. The office can usuaUy place the student, KeaschaU said. Students can call ahead for an appointment. Keaschall encourages freshmen and sophomores to come in and find out about the internships so they can consider them for later work experience.

Minnesota Spots open to visit senators UNL students can bring their ideas to Nebraska state senators through the Adopt a Senator program, said Ruth Boham, legislative liai son for the Government Liaison Committee, ASUN's lobbying group. The GLC-sponsored pro gram matches students with the senator from their hometown legislative dis trict. The student's adopted senator does not have to be from the student's own dis trict, but it seems more representative and the sen ators respond more, Boham' said. The program aims to help students become better participants in the political system, and to give state senators information about UNL and its students' needs, Boham said. Twenty students are in volved in the program, and the GLC is looking for new participants. Participants meet at least once with their adopted sen ator. They fiU out a senator ial appointment evaluation form after each contact. The focus of the meet ings is informational, Boham said. "It's more a casual inter action than direct lobby ing," Boham said. The GLC also sponsors weekly breakfasts and occasional lunches for state senators, with two or three senators invited to talk with eight or 10 students at a time, Boham said. Various campus groups have organized legislature- to tell the student body of UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKALINCOLN about some unusual career opportunities available to men and women while they stay in school and after they graduate.
