Arrows going PHARR this summer!
Introducing SAMANTHA (Telecommunication Media Studies ‘27)
“This summer I had the opportunity to participate in a 4 week internship with the City of Pharr. For the first two weeks I interned at the Pharr International Bridge which is the international border dividing Reynosa Tamaulipas and Pharr Texas (or the Rio Grande Valley). During my time there I got to learn what working at the bridge consists on a day to day basis and recognize the importance it brings when it comes to transporting trade and commerce between the United States and Mexico. The next two weeks I worked with the city’s Office and Communications where I was able to go on site and take videos and pictures of different events happening through the city. I was able to help with taking headshots of all city employees and departments. Last but not least I was able to work the 4th of July festival and got “berol!” and interviewed 3 people about the experience. Overall it was a great experience and I learned a lot from each person that I worked with.”
We are so proud of our girls in everything they are pursuing this summer!
