Charleston-Senator
Tim
Scott
(R-SC)
is
now
accepting
applications
from
South
Carolinians
interested
in
serving
as
interns
in
his
Upstate,
Midlands,
Lowcountry,
and
Washington,
D.C.
offices
for
the
spring
and
summer
terms.
Senator
Scott’s
internships
are
designed
to
provide
an
educational
opportunity,
primarily
for
college
juniors
and
seniors,
to
individuals
who
would
like
to
learn
first-hand
more
about
our
government,
and
to
be
part
of
a
fast-paced
Senate
office.
In
the
Upstate,
Midlands,
and
Lowcountry offices,
interns
will
take
an
active
role
in
the
community
working
on
state-based
projects
of
importance,
while
also
answering
phones,
completing
research
and
other
projects,
and
being
an
integral
part
of
day-to-day
office
functioning.
In
Washington,
interns'
responsibilities
will
be
more
varied.
They
will
be
asked
to
answer
phones,
research
legislation
for
the
Member
and
legislative
staff,
attend
Congressional
hearings
and
briefings
and
answer
constituent
letters
on
various
issues.
Through
their
duties,
interns
learn
about
the
legislative
process
and
the
many
other
functions
of
a
Congressional
office.
Although internships
in
all
offices
are
unpaid,
students
gain
invaluable
work
experience
and
will
have
the
opportunity
to
work
with
professionals
in
both
legislative
and
constituent
services
roles.
Internship
hours
are
flexible
to
accommodate
students'
hectic
course
schedules,
but
generally
run
9:00
a.m.
to
