Present are 9 of the 10 Sodexo Baltimore/Washington DC interns; I am standing on the right and partially in front of the sign. Hello, my name is Stephanie Burner and I am a Sodexo Dietetic Intern for the Baltimore/ Washington DC campus. I am also a completing my Masters in Dietetics through the University of Rhode Island, along with other Sodexo interns. So far in my internship, I have completed my food service and clinical rotations. Up to this point the internship has been challenging and is a lot of hard work, but I have learned an incredible amount and had many great experiences.
Throughout the internship we have scheduled class days or days where we will go to different events. Recently as an internship class, we attended the Maryland Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics Legislative Workshop Day in Annapolis. I had no idea what to expect going into this, but it ended up being a great experience and a lot of fun. We started the day by learning about how to approach legislators and delegates, and the different nutrition related bills that we want to support. We spent the rest of the day going out in Annapolis, talking to delegates, explaining to them why the nutrition related bills are important, and why they should vote in favor of the bills.
Not only are these events a great experience, it is always nice to see the other interns and hear about the experiences they are having at their internship sites.
