During lunch, the students heard from a panel of current and former Legislative Service Commission (LSC) interns who attended an Ohio independent college. The panelists gave their personal accounts of how their connections through the LSC internship, in school and through friends, family and local community leaders assisted them in following their career paths. In addition, the panelists were available for Q&A after the luncheon to discuss issues on a more personal basis with the students.
AICUO would like to thank all of the student advocates who took the time to travel to Columbus for the day and lobby on behalf of their independent institutions, the panelists, the state senators and representatives and their staff that met with the students.
