A SUMMER ON THE HILL: THE SPS MATHER POLICY INTERNSHIP Ashley Finger

The road to Capitol Hill

The Mather Policy Internship "The aim of the program is to promote awareness of policy process among young scientists by directly engaging them in the work that goes on in the federal government— work that is today as exciting as in any time in the past.” - Fred Dylla, Executive Director of AIP

House Committee on Science

An Ordinary Day

Several Extraordinary Days

Takeaway “Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.” -John F. Kennedy

Endless thanks to: The House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology staff, especially Joe Flarida who gave me this opportunity and mentored me along the way. Stacy-Ann Allen-Ramdial and Laurie Hakes, who taught me how to be a Committee intern. Everyone at AIP, especially Kendra Redmond and Jennifer Greenamoyer. All of the SPS interns. Anna Quider who inspired me to pursue science policy. And, last, but certainly not least, Dr. John Mather, who made this internship possible.
