Mollie has spent the past semester in Philadelphia, taking classes and interning at a social service agency. Her internship has involved community education and more specifically working with adult literacy and high school after school programing. Mollie currently plans to pursue a career in social work with the intention of working with children and youth in some capacity.

McNair Scholar, Micky Jo has recently done research concerning representation of female monsters in Ancient Greek and Roman mythology.

She is looking forward to spending the next semester in London and visiting The British Museum.
