In this student-led workshop, 5th Year Students who held internships during Summer 2013 shared their tacticts on acquiring an internship. This workshop included peer-to-peer conversation, open discussion, and round-table critiques of resumes, cover letters, portfolios and portfolio samples.

For Hampton University Architecture Students, it is a curricular requirement to obtain an internship during the summer between 4th Year and the 5th Year, of which the 4th Year concludes with a comprehensive building project and the 5th Year consists of conducting a Master's Thesis, through design-research.

Christian is currently enrolled in an Urban Theory course, instructed by Professors Mason Andrews and Raymond Gindroz. However, there are some 2nd Year Students who are taking the course for credit, but are not able to attend the course's regularly scheduled meeting times.
As a result, and for college credit, Christian has been charged with the task of taking on these 2nd year students and leading a course in Urban Design that is convenient for their schedules.
