Solving a Murder Case
Matt Atwater interned with the 10th Judicial Court Office of the Public Defender and helped compile evidence and documents for a murder case.
“I was responsible for outlining what happened at the scene of the murder. When I went to the crime scene I played out what happened. I explained to the murder attorneys what the discrepancies were in each person’s depositions. It was amazing.”
Training as a Nurse in Oncology
Hannah Liebmann did a summer nurse externship in Washington, D.C., at the MedStar Washington Hospital Center.
“I enjoyed the patient interaction. I developed new skills due to the high level of acuity and the rigor of the unit. I thrived living in a big city and taking the metro (subway) to work every day. However, above all, I enjoyed developing a passion and love for oncology nursing.”
Building Homes for Families in Honduras
Kallie Motola participated in the Trash Mountain Project and Armor Fe Esperanza in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
“In Honduras, my team and I built a home for a family previously living on the city trash dump. We worked with EFA, which is a free school for children in every grade, and it provides education, clothing, and meals. I went to Honduras through Ridge Point Community Church. Each year it sends a team on a mission trip, and this past summer it was with Trash Mountain Project.”
