Throughout the year, but most especially in the summer, Sen. DeMint's D.C. office plays host to several interns looking to experience life in our nation's capital. Most hale from South Carolina, while a few trickle in from other parts of the country. Over the next few days we plan to spotlight the interns who have joined our staff for the month of June.
Introducing Keron Morris of Manning, S.C.:
I am a rising senior at Wake Forest University, majoring in English with a minor in communication. In my local community, I chair a program, Helping Encourage and Develop Students (H.E.A.D.S.), which is geared toward helping elementary students overcome their academic shortfalls. I also mentor seventh grade students at a Winston-Salem middle school and volunteer as a basketball coach at the local YMCA. Last summer, I interned at a law firm close to my hometown in Manning, S.C. During the spring of 2008, I interned at the Children’s Law Center of Central North Carolina. The valuable experience gained through these internships have furthered inspired me to pursue a career in law.
Due in large part to my internship and volunteer experiences, I have developed a passion for public service. It is my ultimate goal to return to my hometown and develop initiatives geared toward the empowering of the youth of the area. Within these efforts, I aspire to establish several recreation centers (in the image of a YMCA or Boys and Girls Club) which could be a great facilitator of some of these initiatives. My time at Sen. DeMint’s office will be invaluable to obtaining these goals. It will provide me the opportunity to gain exposure to the concerns and issues that have a major impact on the children, such as education reform and social issues.
