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.
