His eyes of the world

My father discovered the Grateful Dead in their early years. Swept into the psychedelic scene with the rest of the baby boomer rebels, he found his home among the deadheads.

Are internships worth it?

Your job, your future: Keeping your fingers crossed

If you stopped a random sample of Georgetown students in Red Square and asked them about their employment plans for the summer, chances are that very few would respond by excitedly telling you about their full-time waitressing gig at Applebee’s or nannying job for the next-door-neighbors. Instead, you’d be peppered with a mélange of decidedly impressive sounding employers—think tanks, senators, Wall Street firms, NGOs, major publishing houses. Not only have these internships replaced the traditional summer job, they have become de rigeur for many Georgetown students during the academic year as well.
