<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In order to land your dream job, or internship, you have to
go through the interview process. These interviews can be intimidating. It is
hard to come across as your best self when you can hardly remember to breathe!
In light of the D.C. internship interviews we will have happening in our office
this month, we are giving you some guidelines on how to put your best foot
forward during your time with your future employer.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Huffington Post put out a great article entitled, “<i>Make Your Mark: 10 Ways to Stand Out in an
Interview,” </i>by Natalie Roytman. We’re going to share the 10 tips she gave,
but to read more about each one, click <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/uloop/make-your-mark-10-interview-tips_b_4789189.html">here</a>
for the whole article.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">1) Prepare Your Key Points</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">2) Relax and Be Personable</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">3) Talk About Your Experience</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">4) Don't Be Afraid to Talk About Your Interests</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">5) Dress Appropriately</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">6) Be Confident</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">7) Have an Updated Resume</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">8) Ask Questions</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">9) Talk About Your Goals</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">10) Mention Your Strengths and Weaknesses</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">These are the type of things that you make you look your
best. Every employer is different, but these are some fairly general pointers
that apply in any situation. We’d encourage you to read the rest of Roytman’s
article <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/uloop/make-your-mark-10-interview-tips_b_4789189.html">here</a>.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">But if you don’t remember anything else, remember this: Be
on time, dress professionally and be confident. If you can implement these
steps, you’re going to nail it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This semester's internship Q&A panel was a
very successful one. With about 50 students in attendance, it was a full crowd.
The panelists, Janet Anderson, Michael Wheat and Ryan Wilcox, were able to
answer many of the students' questions about the benefits and logistics of
doing an internship in D.C.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>My Favorite Moment</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><b>By: Clay Marsh</b></span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
My favorite moment of my internship so far has to be when Pope Francis came to give a speech to a joint session of Congress. I was able to stand outside on the west lawn of the capitol when His Holiness came out to bless the crowd after his speech. I know that it isn’t common to have a pope visit happen during an internship but it was one of those rare moments where the educational side and the occupational side of my internship collided to create a really special moment.<br />
<br />
I can remember feeling as if I didn’t want to attend the event knowing that it was going to be a hassle trying to fight the crowds. I have always been the type of person to give up on trying to attend fun things when I know that it would require standing in lines or being surrounded by tons of people at the same time. It took some time but I finally realized that if I didn’t fight that inclination and do what I could to see the pope I would beat myself up for missing that chance for a very long time.<br />
<br />
I loved listening to Pope Francis explain the need for greater cooperation and a common sense approach to immigration. His message of compassion for others deeply resonated with me and is something that I won't soon forget. Hearing Pope Francis commit himself to working with world leaders to solve the issues of our times is what really impressed me the most about him. I’ll also remember how his message resonated with liberals and conservatives and created an environment where sides could come together to govern effectively.<br />
<br />
Being at the event and getting to see the Pope bless the large crowd after his speech is what helped me realize the incredible amount of diverse individuals that you're surrounded by in Washington. Where other opportunities to network and meet people usually involves meeting people from very similar backgrounds, in DC you meet and get to know people from all different walks of life that gives you interpersonal skills that are almost exclusive to the area. <br />
<br />
Getting to be here for that occasion and the many other times where I had to chance to meet so many incredible and different people has been the motivation behind me trying to find a job so that I’m allowed to stay in this environment and hopefully build a happy and effective career in policy.<br />
<br />
Being a student that was close to finishing I thought I wouldn’t do an internship in DC. But after some prodding from close friends within the IOGP I am incredibly grateful for not only the chance to see the Pope but the chance to be here and learn in-depth how the federal government works. With everything I’ve learned here I feel that my career opportunities have grown exponentially and the things that I’ve learned became more than just another class on politics but a first-hand, incredible chance to be a part of the process. </div>

<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">"I expect that this internship will open my eyes to how government functions, the real detail of it. I have a broad understanding of what a congressman does, but I want to see the specifics of it, like how they fill their every day, the kind of issues the deal with and how constituents have a voice. I look forward to finding all that out and experiencing that first hand. In general, it will provide me with a lot of positive experiences as far as meeting people and learning how the United States government works, as well as give me some professional background experience."</span></div>

That has really been a bright spot of my internship. They are great people who work hard and enjoy what they do. That attitude really helps. Congressman Bishop is great as well. He has a relatively small staff, and we get to see and interact with him quite regularly.<br />

I am not dealing with national security out here, but in that class we learned how to analyze a certain group or culture, and identify elements of their culture that help us understand the best way to work with them. Everyone is different, and looking for the best way to work with certain groups has helped me understand better the processes that are involved in politics.<br />

<b>IOGP: </b>What do you like most about DC?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>AA: </b>Washington DC has so much to offer. Whatever you like to do, odds are you can do it out here. The metro system is really nice for getting where you want to go. If you want to get super involved politically, you can do that. If you want to learn about history, there is so much to see here, from monuments to free museums and everything in between. If you want to discover different cultures, you are just a metro stop away. If you want to spend time outdoors, you are very close to some beautiful areas. If you like sports, DC has professional teams for all five major sports. Whatever you want to do, you can find it here.<br />

<b>IOGP: </b>Any recommended sights to see in DC?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>AA: </b>The National Mall is great, with all the monuments. It is really fun to see them at night when they are all lit up. There are free walking tours that are great. You meet a guide at a specific spot, and walk around with them talking and telling stories. The Smithsonian Museums (all 19 of them) are all really cool and they are free! Arlington National Cemetery is a must-see. The Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier is very powerful. If you are able to get out to Gettysburg (about 2 hours away), I would also suggest seeing that. They have a great museum there, and you can walk around the battlefields. It is a very profound experience. Make sure you see the movie at the museum. It is a couple dollars more, but it is completely worth it. There is so much to see and do out here. I have been here almost three months and feel like I have just barely scratched the surface!<br />

<br />
The Institute of Government and Politics, in conjunction with Utah State University, has joined #GivingTuesday, a global day of giving on Tuesday, Dec. 1, that harnesses the collective power of individuals, communities and organizations to encourage philanthropy and celebrate generosity. <br />
<br />
We have the goal to receive<b> 25 donations</b> on #GivingTuesday. Former interns and alumni are encouraged to give back by donating something to the IOGP tomorrow. You don’t need to give a lot to make a difference! Donations of $5, $10, $20, $100 or $250 are equally appreciated. Plus, your donation will go even further thanks to a generous donor who will match the first $2,500 donated! To donate, go here <a href="https://www.usu.edu/advancement/givingtuesday/">https://www.usu.edu/advancement/givingtuesday/</a>, and choose Institute of Government and Politics from the drop-down menu.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>So why give back to the IOGP?</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b><i>1. Students rely on you.</i></b> Many students worry that internships are an investment they simply can't afford. Many phenomenal internships are unpaid and the cost of living back east can be a struggle for students. Your support can help students feel confident in accepting internships that will better their lives.<br />
<br />
<b><i>2. You support exceptional students.</i></b> Your donations are going towards some of the brightest students on campus. The internship process is competitive; as a result, top tier individuals are selected to represent Utah State in Washington, D.C., and Salt Lake.<br />
<br />
<b><i>3. With your help, minds are expanded. </i></b>Internships are the most beneficial and influential part of a student’s education. For many students, these are essential steps to finding a job after graduation. Outside the walls of Old Main, Aggies are able to gain a broader view of who they are, how they can give back, and a better understanding of future opportunities.<br />
<br />
<b><i>4. You affect America’s future.</i></b> One-fourth of the interns we place are majoring in Political Science; the rest come from a variety of majors across campus. Students understand the impact of government in every industry. Participating in an internship expands understanding of government processes, allowing our Aggies to become better-informed citizens and better-equipped leaders in their careers.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><i>5. The IOGP depends on you. </i></b>IOGP scholarships are limited to the amount of donations received. Only with your help can the IOGP fulfill its mission to enhance understanding of government institutions and the political process with opportunities that bridge practical skills and academic learning.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>So where does your donation go?</b></span></div>
<br />
The average cost of a D.C. internship with 12 Credits is $8,430.<br />
<br />
That’s the same as buying:<br />
-1,686 pizzas <br />
-1,405 Big Mac Combo Meals<br />
-13,090 pounds of copy paper<br />
- 15 iPhone 6’s<br />
- 120 textbooks <br />
<br />
<div>
And for a college student, that’s a lot. That’s 1,162 hours at a minimum wage job. This kind of financial burden can be a deterrent for some of our brightest prospects. That’s where you come in.<br />
<br />
There are three funds your donation could go to: <br />
<b><i>1) The Circle of ’88:</i></b> With an annual donation of $1,000 or an ongoing monthly draft of $88, you automatically enter our Circle of ’88. The Circle brings together those whose generous giving advances USU’s founding principles – teaching, research and service. By joining the Circle of ’88, you can ensure that future generations of students continue to have the chance to learn and grow through internships. </div>
<div>
<br />
<b><i>2) Housing Fund:</i></b> USU provides subsidized housing, but interns still pay $800 monthly, several times the cost of housing in Logan. Your donation to this fund ensures this expense doesn’t prevent a student from pursuing an internship. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><i>3) Travel Fund:</i></b> The average round-trip flight to D.C. is $900, and once there, commuting expenses may cost several hundred additional dollars. These expenses are large enough to keep many students from even getting off the ground. Your donation to this fund ensures students are able to reach their intern destination.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i>On Nov. 19,
the Institute of Government and Politics held a forum relating to the court
system and the mentally ill. Judge Kevin Allen of the First District Courts was
the speaker at the forum. The following are a few of the things that Judge
Allen spoke about at the event. Background information on Judge Allen and the
mental health courts can be found in the previous post.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>1) How He
Got Involved with the Mental Health Court<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When Judge Allen began the interview process to become a judge, he was
asked at every step of the way if he would be willing to start a mental health
court. He said yes, despite the fact that he didn’t know anything about mental
health courts. At the time of his appointment, there was only one other mental
health court in the state of Utah, and it was located in Salt Lake City. Judge
Allen said running a mental health court in Cache County is very different than
running one in Salt Lake because they have many more resources than he does.
The other judges in the First District Court told Judge Allen that he could run
the mental health court if he wanted, but that he would still be expected to do
an equal amount of work in the regular courts. He agreed to this and assembled
a team of mental health experts, prison officials, USU professors and police
officers, and together they did the research needed to open the mental health
court.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>2) The
Problem with Our Criminal Justice System<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“It’s estimated that one in six prisoners has a serious mental
illness,” Allen said. “Not just a mental illness. I’ve read studies that
indicate that half of the prison population has a mental illness. But one in six
is a serious mental illness: schizophrenia, major bipolar disorder, major
depressive disorder. These are serious mental illnesses that, without treatment,
cause people to act out in very destructive ways. The problem too is that in
prisons, they don’t get any treatment. There are so many rules and regulations
at the jail, and they have to have them to maintain order over there, but often
times they are really detrimental to those who are mentally ill.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Judge Allen also spoke about the extreme costs of incarcerating
people. He said Cache County alone is spending about $1 million on housing the
current mentally ill inmates. According to Allen, if Cache County would instead
spend that money on helping these people get treatment, it’d be amazing what
that $1 million could do.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>3) The
Purpose of Mental Health Courts<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“The purpose of mental health courts is very simple,” Allen said.
“What we try and do is have the person recognize they have a mental illness. By
the end of their time with us, I want them to be able to talk about their
mental illness to anybody, anywhere, anytime. They have no shame attached to
their mental illness. Because that’s one of the biggest problems we have, is
that they won’t talk about it or get the help they need. After they recognize
it, they have to accept the treatment we are going to give to them.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Judge Allen then proceeded to share his go-to analogy about mental
health. He explained that when someone gets diagnosed with diabetes, that
person’s doctor prescribes to them some medication and explains that they will
have to change their behaviors. They can no longer survive off of a diet of
fast food and soda. If they don’t take their medications and change their
behaviors, they will die. According to Judge Allen, mental illness is the same
way. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The theory is that if these people can recognize their illness, and
accept the treatment the court is going to give them, they will not go back to
jail.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>4) Why
Mental Health Courts Work<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“We have the power of the robe,” Allen said. “I have the power in
mental health court to immediately remove someone’s liberty. I have complete
100% discretion.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He gave an example of one woman in the mental health court that was
late to every doctor’s appointment she had. Allen finally took the action to
tell her he would put her in jail if she was late even one more time, and she
hasn’t been late since.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I have the ability to hold them immediately accountable,” Allen said.
“It is a powerful tool.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>5) Mental
Health Courts make a difference<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“Mental health courts work. We
have about a 70% success rate, and we measure success by a lack of recidivism.
Lots of them go on to live happy, meaningful lives. You sit in something like
this, and you see someone’s life totally change.”<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Allen then shared the following
parable:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<i>A man was
walking along a deserted beach at sunset. As he walked he could see a young boy
in the distance. As he drew nearer, he noticed that the boy kept bending down,
picking something up and throwing it into the water.<o:p></o:p></i></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

From John Boehner resigning as speaker, to the Pope visiting DC, to another possible government shutdown, something exciting happens every day. It is an incredible feeling to be in the same city at the Pope and be only a building away from the new Speakership election. I wouldn't trade my first-hand account of today's history for anything.</span><br />

<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>RE: </b>Working for Senator Hatch is a one-in-a-lifetime experience. It is hard to find another Senator in Congress that does as much as Senator Hatch has done for so long. The people in his office are driven, kind, intelligent, and professional. The Senator himself is sharp and quite funny. Despite his extremely busy schedule, he makes it a point to say hello to the interns when he sees them in the office and checks in often to make sure that we are having a good experience. I am the intern for the press team. Occasionally the press secretary asks for my help when recording videos of the Senator for press releases. This allows me to interact with Senator Hatch quite a bit.</span><br />

I am close enough to graduation that I can finish my degree online and get started on a career out here. I hope to work on the Hill because it allows me to be a part of the legislative process in many aspects. In my opinion, it is easiest to transition straight from an internship into a full time position, so I am hoping to make that work. Long term I might go to law school or just try and make a career out of working on the Hill. Other than that I am just going with the flow.</span></div>

It was so helpful to understand a part of the legislative process before I started working for an actual lawmaker. However, I think that each class I took in college helped me get to where I am now.

However, there is nothing quite like working in the Nation's capitol. For years in school I studied the process that happens here, and now I am living it.

I am so grateful for the opportunity that Senator Hatch gave me and I can't believe I ever second-guessed it. </span></div>

Taking an internship can seem intimidating. To be one of the youngest and most inexperienced employees is overwhelming at any local business, let alone in our nation's capital. But don't let your worries get the best of you! An internship is a great way to learn, network and build your resume by getting first-hand experience.<br />
<br />
Whether you are interning in DC or in Salt Lake with the Legislature, you can use some of the same strategies to be successful. Business Insider published a wonderful article about ways you can stand out as an intern.

I applied for it and actually got the job. So the highlight would be getting an actual job from my internship. There are other highlights as well like getting to see a lot of people that have ran for president, or are running for president, you get to go to lots of galas and receptions, and DC is just a really cool place to live.</div>

For Halloween, we trick or treated on Embassy Row and went to a party in the woods with a whole bunch of people. There are so many things to do and people to see.</div>

<b>CC:</b> I saw Senator Barrasso almost every day he was in the office. He is a great guy, and working with his staff was really nice. There were only two of us, two interns, in his office, so we got to do lots of different things. He gave me a present just the other day. Working with Senator Barrasso is fantastic.</div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b>CC: </b>I would say, do it! I was offered an internship last year in Senator Hatch's office, but I turned it down. But then I got out here and it's absolutely fantastic. So just do it! Other than that, I would say save your money. There's a lot of fun stuff to do, so you'll want to come out here with a bit of pocket change. Learn your major political figures, and the rest of the stuff you can't learn in school. They'll teach you here, and you'll learn as you go.</div>

<b><i>On Low Voter Turnout in Local Elections:</i></b><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Mayor Petersen:</b> <span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Here
in Cache Valley, there are a number of communities who have cancelled their
elections. This is because the law doesn’t require an election to be held when
there aren’t more candidates than there are open seats. In Logan, we have three
seats available on the city council and four candidates, and so we will have
the election. However, since it is only this single race on the ballot, people
are less likely to come vote. The fact that they are non-partisan elections
means that parties aren’t involved in getting out voters; it’s the individual
candidates that have to do that. Those are maybe a couple of reasons for low
turn outs.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Senator Hillyard:</b>
I know a lot of people who would be good legislators, who simply say, ‘I wouldn’t
go through the process. I don’t want to pay the money.’ I think that turns
people off in voting. The strategy gets almost to be, ‘I know my hardcore
people are going to vote for me, there will be hardcore people to vote for the
other side. I just want to get the middle people not to vote. So I’m going to
say as many bad things as I can about Mitt Romney, or as many bad things about
President Obama.’ I heard a saying once that it doesn’t matter whether you get
bit by the dog or the cat. People look at the election and say, ‘It doesn’t
matter if I like the Republicans or the Democrats, it’ll all end up the same.’
And they end up not voting. That’s really a sad commentary about our election
process.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Gary Hill:</b> I
think that people don’t appreciate necessarily how impactful the local
government is to your day to day life. I think if people appreciated how much
your city and your county do and affect your life on a daily basis, they might
be a little more interested. Sometimes there is no controversy and no voter turnout
because people are just pretty happy with the way things are going.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><i>On Zoning and Planning for Population Growth:</i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Gary Hill:</b> You
have to take the time to plan well. Your master plan should outline what areas
of town you want to have homes, what areas of town you want to have commercial
development, how you are going to get people to and from those, how wide your
roads are, and what you are doing for trails and parks. The planning is the
first step. The second piece of that is don’t get behind on your
infrastructure. If you get behind the curve, and you don’t start replacing your
infrastructure as you need to, you are just going to have to pay much more
later. It costs about 10 times as much to replace a road as it does to maintain
it. It’s extremely expensive. You also have a policy decision to make about new
growth. Do you put that burden on the existing taxpayers, or do you put that
burden on the people who are demanding the growth? In other words, who pays for
it? There’s a very big mix of what you can do, but it starts with planning.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Mayor Petersen:</b> Growth depends on the nature of the city.
Logan City doesn’t have a large amount of area within our city limit to expand.
So our likely growth over the next 30 years isn’t going to be as rapid as it
might be in North Logan or some of the other communities. So the planning for
growth really has to be considered in light of what your capacity for growth
is.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Senator Hillyard:</b>
A number of years ago, there was a push in the state that we would have state
planning for all of this. The threats got so heavy to the legislature that we
had to make sure we had guards at the doors. People were so concerned that the
state was going to plan it, and thought it should be left to the counties. So
no one has ever dared even talk about that anymore.</div>

<b><i>Advice to Students
Wanting to Get Involved in Local Politics:</i><o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><i><br /></i></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Senator Hillyard:</b>
On the local level, candidates don’t run by political party. So if you want to
get involved, what you need to do is pick a candidate and go say, ‘I’d like to
help you, what can I do?’ There is plenty of good work for volunteers to do and
it’ll get you the type of information and knowledge you’ll need if you want to run
yourself. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Gary Hill:</b> I
would suggest, at the local level, go in and talk to your mayor. The mayors
would love to tell you some of the things that might be interesting to you. At
the legislature, I would strongly suggest that you find a bill at the beginning
of the session on a topic that is of interest to you and just follow what
happens. Call the bill sponsor and talk to them. They are so accessible. You
will learn so much about the legislative process.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Mayor Petersen:</b>
If you’ve never been to City Council meetings, it is an interesting process.
You ought to see a little bit about how the system works. It doesn’t work
perfectly, but it really is designed to get people’s input and to be
transparent. </div>

I assist the majority caucus. Caucus meetings are held pretty regularly during
the session and throughout the year. I work to do the organization for that,
it’s mostly administrative honestly. I spend most of my time on the communications
side of things. I do public relations and media relations. I spend a lot of my
time, especially during the session, helping senators with their media
contacts. I also do social media, and during the session I have a couple of
communications interns who help me with that too. It really depends on the day.
I do a lot of writing, a little bit of YouTube video creating and during the
session I do pretty much every press conference the Senate does. The sky is the

your internships help prepare you for your career?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>KR: </b>The
internship is the reason why I’m here, to be honest with you. I don’t think I
would have been interested in working in government, at least not in this
capacity, had I not participated in the internship. You kind of fall in love
with the atmosphere, the people and the fact that you’re helping to get things
that really matter done while you’re an intern. I ended up here because the
Chief of Staff over in the Senate, who I had kind of become friends with
through my internship even though I was on the House side, was short a staffer
for the 2012 session. He needed somebody who could kind of jump in quickly, on
a moment’s notice, to help him out with the communications side of things for
that session. Since I had interned twice, and we had loosely kept in contact,
he knew that I was prepared to just jump right back in.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
It prepared me for this career in the networking that was
available. It prepared me for the career in that it helped me to understand
that there is good in government still. There are actually people here who really
are honestly just working to make a difference. I don’t have that stigma of
what a politician is that a lot of people do. That’s not without exception of
course.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The internship helped me to realize a lot of things about
myself that I didn’t know before. It helped me to develop my own political
opinions a little bit more and to learn how to be a better researcher. I was
definitely a better student too, as a result of having been here.</div>

Representative Frank, and then Representative Brad Winn. The second time I
interned was the 2009 general session. That was my freshman year up at Utah
State. I interned as a policy analyst for the conservative caucus, which was a
group of 30, plus or minus, legislators who got together a couple times a week
during the session to discuss different policy issues and work on projects
together. It was a little bit of a different experience the second time around,
but I kind of couldn’t get enough the first time, so I was happy to be invited
back. I also interned in the summer of 2011 with Mike Lee’s office out in D.C.</div>

<b>KR: </b>The 2008
session was really awesome because I got to experience, for the first time
really, firsthand what the legislative process is actually like. In the news,
you read about the political side of things and interns who come here, years
before me and years after me, all get to understand and watch the actual legislative
process in an up close and personal way. In a textbook, for example, you can
read about the committee process and things like that, but watching it was
awesome. It made me fall in love with state-level politics. </div>

<b>IOGP: </b>What are
some of the advantages of being an intern in Salt Lake with the state
legislature?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>KR: </b>I’ll tell
you what, if I had to pick looking back, while I loved my D.C. experience and
it is completely unlike anything I’ve ever done, the value of the learning that
you get in the legislative internship is actually higher. You’re kind of the
chief of staff to the person who you’re working for because the legislative
staff here is really small. Even right now we have 29 senators and something
like nine full-time people. For us who work here now, we can’t even wait for
the interns to get here and help the senators and help the representatives
because they need it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Interns get to be
part of policy discussions. There have been multiple times when different
legislators have asked interns, “What do you think about this?” While interns
shouldn’t express their opinions, and that’s actually looked down upon, it’s a
really good chance for them to get to dialogue regularly and be relied upon by
the legislator they work for.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I hear it all the time that D.C. interns get to interact
maybe once or twice with the member that they are working for. Here, personal
relationships are insane. As a staff member I grow strange attachments to the
interns that work here. We stay in contact with them, and they come up and
visit. </div>

the role of interns during each legislative session?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>KR: </b>I can only
speak for the Senate side, really, on that. I don’t know exactly how the House
uses their interns these days. For us, we go through quite a process to match
interns to Senators prior to the session. We spend a lot of time trying to make
the right matches because different Senators use their interns in different
ways. For example, a USU intern, Justine Larsen, was the Senate President’s
intern two years ago. When we interviewed her, it was very clear that she was
very good with research. She’d had a lot of experience there. Her manner was
pleasant, quiet, and respectful, but confident. Once we got to know her, it was
very apparent that she was a very good candidate to be the Senate President’s
intern, because that’s the kind of person he needs. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The Senate President would use his intern for things like
making sure his meetings go on schedule, keeping his schedule during the
session, a lot of policy research and sitting in on meetings on his behalf.
Other Senators use their interns to help them with their social media. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
We keep our interns really, really busy. They are a
really integral part of the process for us. I don’t know how the session would
go without our interns, but I don’t like to imagine it because it would be
something of a nightmare. I can’t even tell you how many times I have heard
from Senators how important their interns are to them during that time. Many of
them stay in touch with their interns for years to come.</div>

<b>KR: </b>Just do
it! I know for a lot of people it is inconvenient to take a semester off. I
know that sometimes the drive doesn’t seem very good, or the arrangements as
far as housing don’t seem awesome, but these internships really do change the
course of people’s lives probably more often than not. So for anyone who has
inhibitions about it or who doesn’t like the inconvenience that it could
present, I would just say forget all that and do it. People don’t regret coming
and spending time here. It ends up being something that they’ll treasure for
the rest of their lives. There is a legislator here for every type of intern.</div>

in the Legislature assumes they are a rising star, so I suppose you never
really know until the votes are cast in a leadership race. I loved my time in
the Legislature, and I will always treasure the friendships that I made during
those two years. But in the Legislature, I was 1 of 104. Now, with a handful of
others, I get to be in the room with the governor when he makes major
decisions. I'm guessing it must be the inner athlete in him, but Governor
Herbert is very open to a competition of ideas among his senior staff. He
encourages alternative viewpoints and appreciates being challenged. I have
found that type of setting to be incredibly fulfilling as he makes critical
decisions for Utah's future. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

the world of politics and led me directly into a four-year stint as a staff

would have never pursued that path and likely not become involved in politics

<b><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">JC: </span></b><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 13.0pt;">Read. Politics is
primarily a competition of ideas, and if you don't have many ideas you won't
get very far in the field. The big, foundational ideas in my life that have
motivated and guided me have almost always come from a book--usually one I read
without being assigned by a teacher to do so. If you tell yourself that you'll
begin reading recreationally once you finish a difficult semester, then don't
be surprised when that day never comes. Difficult semesters turn into difficult
jobs, which turn into marriages (hopefully not as difficult) and kids
(definitely difficult). Having three kids in less than a year, I'm probably not
the best resource for parenting tips — but I will say that reading has remained
a priority for me even in the busiest of times because it was a priority for me
way back in college. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

playing practical jokes on each other back then. One of our favorites took
place in the old Merrill Library. We would find a book with an embarrassing
title and place it in a friend's backpack. When that friend would walk out of
the library the alarm would go off, and they would have to explain to the
library staff why they were trying to sneak out a book entitled, "Raging
Hormones: Do They Control Our Lives?" A decade after the fact, I hope the

<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">What has been your overall internship experience?</span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">My internship was amazing. I could not have asked for a better legislator to work with. I was able to sit in on important meetings with influential people and see how everyone involved wants to make a difference.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-family: inherit;">What was the most surprising aspect of your internship?</span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I expected to see much more head-to<span style="background-color: white;">-head politics from beginning to end. The public can have such negative views about the legislators and the process. My experience proved to be different: the interactions, disagreements, and agreements were usually professional. They respect each other and really want to get something done that is best for the state of Utah. The public may not like what is passed, but should understand they’re all trying to produce the best proposal that satisfy the diverse opinions and needs of the people.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;"><i>What was the most challenging part?</i></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Reading the Senators mind? (laughs) You really need to pay attention to what is going on and who is involved in your particular bills and processes. Every day was exciting and different. I needed to be ready when something or someone is needed that we did not anticipate.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i>How did the reality of your internship experience differ from your expectations?</i></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">The legislators come from a variety of backgrounds. Each of their own careers and experience benefit the process and iron out the bad legislation. Because sometimes there is bad legislation that perhaps the sponsor and supporters only see one side of. But everything had consequences, good or bad. Senator Shiozawa worked a lot on Healthy Utah. The reality is that there were politics happening, mostly in the end, in order to get something passed for the expansion of Medicaid. It was difficult to see some legislators unwilling to lean one way or the other when something clearly needs to be addressed.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"><i>What are some tips you would give to future interns?</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Stay on top of what is going on during the session. The more you know the more you can help. Go in with respect to your legislator. You will learn so much from the places and meetings you get to attend. Be discreet with the conversations you are privy to. Most of all, if you’re considering an internship:</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;"> </span><i style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">do it</i><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">.

<span style="font-family: inherit;">In the frenzy of the 45 day session, legislative interns become many things for their legislator(s). They become a second set of eyes that can research the dozens of bills that will be considered by a standing committee. They become a second pair of legs that can run errands, an extra hand to greet visiting student groups, an extra set of ears of to listen to constituent concerns. In other words, they have a deeply immersive experience that moves at the speed of, well, the speed of the Legislature.<o:p style="box-sizing: border-box;"></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Poll numbers released Friday illustrate the need for legislators to educate Utah residents about the most important issues they will face during the upcoming session.</span></div>

Polling data was collected from a random sample of 715 registered voters between Dec. 22 and Jan. 10. It has a margin of error of 3.6 percent, with a 5.2 percent margin of error on questions where the sample was split.</span></span></div>

Poll numbers, however, show that many residents have little familiarity with the issues or the arguments surrounding them. The <a href="http://www.utah.gov/governor/news_media/article.html?article=9747" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-out; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.3s ease-out;">Healthy Utah Plan</a>, in particular, confused many poll respondents. When asked if they knew about the proposal, 44 percent has no awareness and another 44 percent said they had little understanding of the issue. Because of that, any poll numbers about public support or opposition for the Healthy Utah Plan carry little weight, said <a href="http://directory.usu.edu/aggie/601c24/" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-out; box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: all 0.3s ease-out;">Damon Cann</a>, an associate professor in the USU Political Science Department. Cann presented the poll numbers to more than 200 legislators, policy makers, lobbyists, journalists and keynote speaker Karl Rove during the Policy Summit.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">“When you see 44% of people don’t even know what it is, you have to be really careful about using public opinion to formulate public policy," Cann said to the group.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">“The large number of neutrals shows that people don’t really understand what needs to be done,” Cann said. “There needs to be substantial education for the public.”</span></div>

Here they are:<br />
<br />
<b>Five Local Races to Watch</b><br />
<br />
<u>Utah House Congressional District 4: Mia Love (R) vs. Doug Owens (D)</u><br />
The latest Utah Policy poll (conducted by Dan Jones and Associates) has Mia leading by 48% to 43%, with 6% undecided. Mia is a former Mayor of Saratoga Springs. Doug is an attorney in Salt Lake City and the son of former Utah Congressman Wayne Owens.<br />
<br />
<u>Utah Senate District 4 (East SL County): Jani Iwamoto (D) vs. Sabrina Petersen (R)</u><br />
Senate D4 primarily covers the Millcreek and Holladay areas of Salt Lake County. Incumbent Pat Jones (D) is not running for re-el<span style="font-family: inherit;">ection. In 2012, Sen. <span style="background-color: white;">Jones took 56% of the vote against the republican’s 43%. Jani Iwamoto is a former member of the Salt Lake County Council and Sabrina Petersen is currently on the Holladay City Council.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white;"><u>House District 31 (West Valley): Rep. Larry Wiley (D) vs. Sophia DiCaro (R)</u></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit;">Rep. Wiley won 50.5% to 49.5% - less than a 1,000 votes – in 2012. Rep. Wiley was first elected to the House in 2008 and currently serves on the House Rules Committee and Natural Resources and Ag Appropriations subcommittee. DiCaro has worked for the Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget and Governor’s Office of Economic Development.</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>House District 44 (Murray): Christine Passey (D) vs. Bruce Cutler (R)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Incumbent Tim Cosgrove (D) is not running for re-election. In 2012, Rep. Cosgrove took 55% of the vote. Cutler has a computer science degree from the Unviersity of Utah and has served on the Murray School Board. Christine has been active in grassroots advocacy, especially for children with autism.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>House District 69 (Carbon and Duchesne County): Brad King (D) vs. Bill Labrum (R)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Brad King served in the Utah Legislature from 1997 to 2008, serving in House Minority Leadership during most of that tenure. Brad has recently retired after 33 years working for USU Eastern. Bill Labrum defeated incumbent Jerry Anderson and former legislator Christine Watkins in the 2014 republican primary.</span></div>

<span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Five National Senate Races to Watch</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Currently the U.S. Senate includes 53 Democrats and 45 Republicans with 2 Independent Senators (both caucus with the Democrats). There are a number of Senate races to watch that will be key to determine which party will be in control fo the Senate for the 114th Congress. We’ve highlighted five of these races:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.3; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Arkansas: Sen Mark Pryor (D) vs. Tom Cotton (R)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Arkansas is becoming more Republican (recently gaining a majority in the General Assembly in 2012), and Sen. Pryor is being challenged by Rep. Cotton, a well-liked congressman from Southern Arkansas. Fivethirtyeight.com polling has Cotton ahead by 5.1 points.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.3; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Colorado: Sen. Mark Udall (D) vs. Cory Gardner (R)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 1.3;">Sen. Udall’s approval ratings have dropped with the President’s, and Cory Gardner is a rising star within the Republican Party. Fivethirtyeight.com polling has Garnder ahead by 1.9 points.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.3; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px;">
<u>Georgia: David Perdue (R) vs. Michelle Nunn (D)</u><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 1.3;">Georgia leans right, giving Perdue an edge, but Democrats in the state are excited about Nunn’s chances of ending the party’s 14-year dry spell in the Senate. Fivethirtyeight.com polling has Perdue ahead by 1.2 points.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.3; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 1.3;"><u>Iowa: Bruce Braley (D) vs. Joni Ernst (R)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Looking to fill the open seat left by Sen. Tom Harkin, democrats settled on Rep. Braley (whose campaign has been beset by gaffes), and republicans chose state Sen. Ernst (while some hold reservations about her ability in the seat). Fivethirtyeight.com polling has Ernst ahead by 1.2 points.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.3; margin: 0px 0px 20px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><u>Kansas: Sen. Pat Roberts (R) vs. Greg Orman (I)</u></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Kansas is a red state, but Orman running as an independent has led to a stiff head-to-head polling battle between the two. Fivethirtyeight.com polling has Orman ahead by 0.2 points.</span></div>
