91制片厂 student Melissa Fregeau of Westmont was selected as the ninth Lockport Woman抯 Club/Pat Darin Internship.
Fregeau, a history major, will help design an online exhibit to celebrate the Illinois Bicentennial. The senior will also assist in processing materials into the collection and transcription of oral interviews while earning course credit for her internship.
揑 am looking forward to working in the Howard and Lois Adelmann Regional History Collection and getting hands-on experience in several areas of public history,� she said.
Dennis H. Cremin, director of the and professor of history, commented, 揑 am so proud of our partnership with the Lockport Woman抯 Club. The organization is well known for giving scholarships, but this paid internship is transformative for our students.�
Fregeau is looking to pursue a career in either public history or education. 揑 have a passion for history and I would like to share that passion with others. Some people say that history is boring. I do not think it is history itself that is boring, but the manner in which it may be presented. I would like to find a way to remedy that through teaching or creating captivating exhibits for the public,� commented Fregeau.
