Jade Bramwell, a senior studying broadcast journalism in the Bellisario College of Communications, completed a summer internship with CNN (a business unit of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc.) and a nine-week summer media fellowship in New York City. At CNN, she supported “CNN NewsNight,” hosted by Abby Phillip. "This has been a rough last few months in the news cycle and learning the ins and outs of the industry has been life changing," Bramwell said. "Being the only Black/Black woman CNN news show intern this summer is a privilege I do not take lightly. I hope the trend continues to move forward for more diverse faces in the newsroom. Thank you, T. Howard Foundation for continuing to shift the movement in media helping students like me receive internships.”
Kacie Czyszczon, a senior majoring in food science in the College of Agricultural Sciences, spent the summer with The Hershey Company as a Research and Development intern on the sensory and product insights team in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Czyszczon learned about many sensory techniques, such as descriptive analysis, by working with the Hershey Professional Taste Panel. She also worked with the materials characterization team to explore solutions to complex food analysis problems linked to physical transformation. Throughout the summer, she had the opportunity to see Hershey’s Kisses be made on the production line, bake in the Hershey test kitchens, and make Reese’s peanut butter cups in the pilot plant. “Working with iconic confectionery projects that I grew up enjoying was an incredible experience. It was exciting to apply the knowledge and skills that I've developed at Penn State to projects that have a real impact on the business.”
