Contact: Harriet Laird
Eight 桃花直播 State University students are in Washington, D.C., this summer participating in the eighth annual William A. Demmer Scholars Program.
These students participate in internships and work with federal agencies and non-governmental organizations that focus on natural resources, such as the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and U.S. Forest Service. Students also take an upper-level class in natural resources policy, and they recently visited the offices of Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Elena Kagan, the 112th person named to the court and the fourth female to serve.
