Internship Contract
I think it is so neat that I have the opportunity to gain college credit for my internship at Disney World. Contracts are such a neat component to Evergreen, and I hope everyone who attends Evergreen takes advantage of them at one point. I'm not sure I would be here in Florida right now if Evergreen didn't have their contract system.
So in case anyone is wondering, my contract here at Disney World is an internship contract through Evergreen. In an internship contract you must have one faculty sponsor from the school and one field supervisor from the internship in order to qualify for internship credits. My faculty sponsor contacts me once a week and we discuss what I am learning and doing here in Florida. My field supervisor overseas that I am staying on task, and at the end of the quarter they will write up a narrative evaluation on my performance.
Since the Disney College Program is world wide I have met a ton of people from other colleges. Most of the interns here are not getting college credit for this experience. This is just another reason why I think Evergreen is so unique. They welcome people's interests and are happy to award they appropriate credit for their passions.
