Norwood resident takes part in SUNY Oswego Center for Experiential Learning internship

Posted

Jorjienne Labarge of Norwood took part in an internship in summer 2016 through SUNY Oswego's Center for Experiential Learning.

A junior majoring in business administration, Labarge interned with The Art Museum at SUNY Potsdam in Potsdam.

The Center for Experiential Learning at Oswego places students in internships and career awareness opportunities that “allow them to earn college credits while garnering valuable life experience,” according to a press release from the school.

During the last year, more than a thousand Oswego students took part in experiential learning while working at hundreds of businesses, nonprofit agencies and government offices and on campus in dozens of departments and programs, not counting the hundreds of student teachers working in area schools, the release said.

A 155-year-old comprehensive college in the State University of New York system, Oswego enrolls about 8,000 students.
