Eugene Eli Urcan III of Arcadia, who graduated from CSUN in May with a bachelor's degree in biology, will begin working Nov. 3 in the Office of Advanced Correspondence.
His duties will include planning, organizing and implementing the President's daily and long-range schedules. In keeping with President Clinton's emphasis on national service, Urcan will also be required to take part in a community service program.
"We are very proud to support Gene as he represents his alma mater in the White House," said D.G. "Gray" Mounger, CSUN's director of alumni relations. "In turn, Gene has promised to be a CSUN alumni ambassador during his tenure in Washington. He exemplifies the outstanding quality of our alumni."
The Alumni Association's board voted earlier this month to award Urcan the $1,000 scholarship to defray the cost of living in Washington D.C. during his seven-month internship, estimated at a little more than $18,000.
Urcan's internship is expected to end in May, 1998.
