Student interns program starts Gene Chappie's "Student Interns" start visiting the State Capitol on February 8-9, observing, listening, investigating. The "inter" idea is an offshoot of Chappie's Student Advisory Committee representing 33 high schools and community colleges in the 11 county district. "We're inviting each school representative to spend a day or two with us here," explained Chappie, "to learn what they want about state government."’ "The students will be on their own,"' Chappie said. "We don't have time to lead them around, but we'll help them accomplish whatever they want. Two student representatives each -from Sonora High and Marysville High will be "interns" on February 8-9. Besides talking with their Assemblyman, the interns will be able to talk to other legislators, and state officials, attend committee hearings, and study at first hand the legislative process, : Chappie has urged all his student representatives to get their reservations in promptly for their "internship" in the Capitol.
