internships
In college, Greg received a summer internship. As an adult, he has tried to 'pay it forward' by providing internships to high school, community college, university & graduate school students. The internships are off-site (students do assignments from their own home or dorm room). So, the interns have lived & gone to school in many locations. The high school interns have come from places like Wisconsin and Florida. The college & graduate school interns have come from schools like UC-Berkeley, Central College, and University of North Carolina. SCROLL DOWN
Interns' roles & responsibilities vary from intern to intern (and day to day). Most assignments involve research. Sometimes, the interns assist with this website. Other times, they help with tasks like event planning, proofreading, and correspondence, or they help Greg with a civic or philanthropic initiative. The internships typically last for one semester (or for one summer). In some cases, the internships have been extended, by mutual decision, for multiple semesters. SCROLL DOWN
In addition to the off-site internships that last a semester or longer, Greg has occasionally provided 'mini-internships' that take place in person and last just a day or two. For example, when Greg did an on-stage interview at the Baltimore Book Festival, a student from nearby University of Baltimore was selected to be his 'intern/assistant' for the day -- helping him, for example, with the book signing at the event. During the pandemic, Greg has continued to provide more off-site internships to students around the country.
