CLASS NOTES Lucy Gordon Smith recently completed her best academic semester at the University of South Carolina with a GPA of 3.82. This spring marks the fourth consecutive time she was named to the Dean’s List for earning a GPA of 3.5 or higher. She currently works part time at Julia Neal Fashions, a boutique in the Five Points shopping district in Columbia, SC. She worked at the 2014 Masters Tournament in the brand new South Village retail facility in the Masters Collection department, a line of 100% cotton polo shirts designed by the Masters private label. She also worked as a server in the members’
pavilion at the 2014 Wells Fargo Championship at Quail Hollow Club (they will host the 2017 PGA Championship!) in Charlotte, NC. Luke Walker, a strategic communications major at Elon, is interning at the Boston Red Sox organization this summer. He wrote just before starting the job, “I will be working in the Fan Affairs department for the organization, also labeled as ‘an ambassador,’ which focuses on the public relations side of the team and organization. So, I will be at the games, making sure fans at the game have the best experience possible, answering to their needs.
Also, I will be responsible for helping with pre-game ceremonies. For example, if someone were singing the national anthem before a game, or throwing out ‘the first pitch’ I would make sure their needs are addressed and adhered to. Also, I will be writing letters to fans that have written to the organization or its players. For example, if a child writes a letter to David Ortiz, and he is too busy to answer, I will respond to the child thanking them for their interest in the Sox, and let them know that we really appreciate the support.”
