Also, CSUN is hosting a special Zoom event on Tuesday, 9/23/25 at 5pm if you are at all interested in learning more about internships and how they can jumpstart your post-college career!
Roger Lau, Executive Director of the Democratic National Committee (DNC), will be the guest speaker, sharing his own career journey that started as a college intern (in then-Sen. John Kerry's office in Massachusetts), and put him on a trajectory to working in national politics.
