As summer draws to a close, so does our series of postcards from interns. Our final featured student: Bei Jia Viggiano! 🏛️

Bei spent her summer in Pittsfield interning with State Representative Tricia Farley-Bouvier at her district office. This placement is especially meaningful as Pittsfield is Bei’s hometown.

She writes: "I support State Representative Tricia Farley-Bouvier through policy research, constituent engagement, and legislative communications on issues including housing, healthcare, and the environment. I analyze constituent advocacy trends and maintain outreach databases using VoteBuilder, as well as draft policy briefs, resource guides, newsletters, constituent correspondence, and social media content, translating complex legislation into accessible public-facing materials.”

This summer, we're highlighting our remarkable students at their internships both near and far with a series of postcards. Next up: Sakiya Dade-Jarrett ’28! 🧬

Sakiya is spending their summer right here in South Hadley, doing research in the Hodges Lab on campus.

Sakiyawrites: "I'm processing and measuring inflammatory markers in collected adult male and female brain tissue, measuring cells within the female estrous cycle, and examining sex-specific neural activity associated with reward-based cognitive bias. I hope to gain experience in a neuroscience lab which will help me upgrade my CV and benefit my transition to grad school!"

Two years ago, we launched our strategic plan, MHC Forward, with an ambitious vision for the future of our College.

Today, we are grateful for the many ways our community has seized opportunities and navigated challenges to bring that vision to life.

We’ve celebrated academic excellence while fostering learning and connection. The progress we’ve made reflects the dedication and resilience of our students, faculty, staff, alums and friends. As we look ahead, the work of MHC Forward continues.

This summer, we're highlighting our remarkable students at their internships both near and far with a series of postcards. Next up: EJ Byer-Tuohey ’28! 🌲

EJ's summer has been spent on with the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) just North of campus in Amherst.

EJ writes: "In my internship I am doing both field work and administrative tasks. Some days, I am assisting service foresters with visits to active harvest sites to assess whether proper procedures are being followed. Other days, I’m digitizing Forest Management Plans onto an online database using ArcGIS. Or, you’ll find me at the Wood Bank chopping fire wood that gets delivered to people on fixed incomes for free! I am hoping to learn about the different sectors of DCR’s forestry work, such as service forestry and the wood bank, and how each contributes to the well being of Massachusetts’ amazing forests!"
