Over the summer, Quinnipiac media students head home for some rest and relaxation. But for many, that doesn’t last long as they jump right into their summer internships. Several students have been published and have made valuable connections this summer.
Updated Aug. 2: Nicole Fano ’12, incoming Chronicle arts & life editor, recently had her work published in New Jersey Life Health and Beauty magazine where she is interning this summer.
Incoming Chronicle Sports Editor John Healy ’12 is a sports intern at the New Haven Register. He has written several stories.
His work includes:
- AMERICAN LEGION: Defending champion Branford now the hunted as state tournament begins
- All Area Boys’ Volleyball MVP
- Treatment Options for concussions still a headache to figure out
- Hughes: Rehab start at New Britain
- Bubba Watson’s cart-path drive from last year gets a plaque
Incoming Chronicle Publisher Matt Busekroos ’12 is a features intern at the Connecticut Post. His work has also appeared in the Greenwich Time, Stamford Advocate and Danbury News-Times, among other Hearst newspapers.
His work includes:
- Paying farmers a tribute
- Jane Garmey to speak about her book
- Summer squash stars in produce aisle
- And this one, a personal favorite: Cooking for the first time
Incoming Chronicle Editor-in-Chief Lenny Neslin ’12 is a sports web intern with the Boston Globe. As much as Lenny is a Yankees fan, I hope he is growing to love Boston.
His work includes:
- Top Red Sox minor-league prospects
- Meet the 2011 Red Sox draft picks
- Tim Thomas wins Conn Smythe trophy
- Potential trade targets for Red Sox (Lenny said this one clip got 475,000 hits on the Friday it was introduced.)
Sunny Nariyani, the incoming general manager for Q30-TV is interning at NBC in Manhattan.
I know these students are working hard to get clips and experience to build their resumes. They amaze me with their work ethic and drive. But I can’t wait to have them back at Quinnipiac working for their own media groups that will undoubtedly benefit from the great things they’re learning this summer.
