Welcome UCF Intern George!
Hello, my name is George Oakley. I
am starting my internship with FPAN’s East Central region. I am currently in my
final year at the University of Central Florida. My Major is History with a
minor in archaeology. After this year I plan to continue my studies and gain an
M.A. in Public History.
Previously to working with FPAN, I was
enrolled in an archaeology field school through Rollins College. It was an
intense month long program that left me sunburned and exhausted, but it is an
experience I will never forget. Through that field school is how I heard about
FPAN and their volunteering. Volunteering at FPAN not only allows me to earn
credits toward my degree, but it also allows me to work hands on and gain
experience in a field I want to learn more about. Because I receive credit
through UCF for this Internship, I am required to write my first ever blog! Check it out at https://geoakley.home.blog/
