2021-22 Marketing and Communications Interns

 

The Ethics Center works with SCU students through many of its programs, internships, and fellowships to help them grow independently within their respective fields. One of those programs brings in talented students to help with the Center’s marketing and communication efforts. 

Mackenzie Airhart '22, Lucas Bush '23, Katherine Chen '22, and Claire Lindstadt '22 make up this year's Marketing and Communication Intern team. 

Meet the interns and learn how they amplify the work of the Ethics Center.

Supporting our Community

 

The Ethics Center partnered with the City of Santa Clara on a community-based task force on diversity, equity, and inclusion.

"As chair of the Task Force, I can definitively say the Center's contribution has been key to our development and we would not have the charter and strategic plan that we have without Joan and the Center's support."

~Neil Datar ’17
