After launching the inaugural internship program at the start of the fall 2023 semester, the Robert H. Brooks Science Institute is excited to introduce its two new student interns for the spring 2024 semester.
The institute had a competitive application process for the internship positions, but these two candidates stuck out based on their experience, work ethic and abilities.
Justin Robertson, a senior sports communication major from Dayton, Maryland, is the institute’s marketing and communications intern this semester. He will monitor sports-related content on campus, interview students and faculty for content and help oversee the institute’s social media presence and Sports Insights blog.
“I am thrilled to begin this new position and help the institute grow,” Robertson said. “The research and work that the institute’s legacy professors and fellows carry out on a daily basis is nothing short of exceptional. I can’t wait to help share their work with the public and inform people about the impact that the institute has in the sports science landscape.”
Robertson currently serves as the Associate Editor of Clemson University’s student newspaper, The Tiger, where he has gained extensive experience writing and reporting on sports-related content that he hopes will contribute to the institute’s mission.
Lauren Crumley, a senior sports communication major from Haddonfield, New Jersey, is the institute’s events intern this semester. She will aid in event planning and setup, coordinate event operations for the institute’s lecture series and work with faculty on special projects.
“I’m super excited to be working as the events intern for the Robert H. Brooks Sports Science Institute this semester,” Crumley said. “I’ve learned a lot from my previous experiences in the areas of event planning and operations and am looking forward to continuing that with the institute. I look forward to displaying the mission of the institute through the lecture series and more!”
Crumley is a member of Clemson’s rowing team and recently accepted a postgraduate internship in championships operations at the NCAA.
