Tell us about where you are interning and the kind of work you are doing.<\/h3>\n

As an intern I spent most of my time at the Worcester Courthouse running errands for assistant district attorneys. I was also fortunate to be paired with a great mentor who was the ADA who processes all of the gun crimes in Worcester<\/strong>. There, one of my main tasks was to contact various police stations across the nation to request records for defendants that were being tried in a Dangerousness Hearing, and help organize their case files.<\/p>\n

Give us an example of how you have applied your academic learnings to your internship?<\/h3>\n

The internship worked also as a class. I have never taken a criminal law course or a course of the basics of the court, and at the office I got to experience the entire process first hand from arraignment to sentencing and everything in between.<\/strong> This is a great way for anyone who may be interested to learn about law, but doesn’t know where to start.<\/p>\n

What has surprised you about being an intern?<\/h3>\n

I was surprised to find the good relationships that were present in the courtroom on opposing sides<\/strong>. The defense attorney’s and ADA’s were civil and, more often than not, got along well in a way that you may not expect.<\/p>\n

How did this experience influence or connect to your future career plans \/ goals?<\/h3>\n

Before this internship, I was unsure of what my future plans would be. Now, with help from many people at the office, I have decided to apply to law school<\/strong> where I will further explore my interest and passion for the law.<\/p>\n

Any internship advice to pass on to other Holy Cross students?<\/h3>\n

Be assertive<\/strong> and pro-active<\/strong> at all times so that your employer knows you are eager and willing to get work done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
