Parkies: You're ideal interns (just ask NBC Sports!)

NBC Sports was on campus this week to interview Parkies for the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.

This year, we are one of only TWO schools in the entire country where NBC Sports is recruiting interns. One of only TWO.

Why is that?

The NBC staff told us that it's because Parkies are so well-prepared, talented, enthusiastic and hard-working. They get the job done. They step up and volunteer. They are grateful for the opportunity to be at the Olympics. And they are just plain fun to work with.

In other words, Parkies are ideal colleagues at one of the most extraordinary, exciting and competitive media venues in the world.

I can't think of higher praise that you could receive, from anyone.

Congratulations to all of you who were interviewed this week (they said it was going to be an incredibly difficult decision to figure out who is going to get to go)....and to everybody else as well. Because you're all Parkies. And I am certain that the NBC Sports definition and description fits every one of you.
