This summer UCF student Kendal Asbury will embark on an exciting journey as one of four interns at The New York Times<\/em> through the prestigious Dow Jones News Fund (DJNF) summer internship program. For more than 60 years, the Dow Jones News Fund has placed top journalism students in internships at media outlets across the country \u2014 from local newspapers to leading digital newsrooms.<\/p>\n

Asbury, an English literature<\/a> and journalism<\/a> double major, was selected as one of only 81 college students nationwide for the program \u2014 and out of nearly 1,050 applicants. She will serve as a multiplatform editing intern on The Times\u2019<\/em> flexible editing desk in the national newsroom, working alongside two recent graduates and one graduate student from the DJNF program.<\/p>\n

Asbury\u2019s internship highlights the power of interdisciplinary learning at UCF and the ways a foundation in the humanities can prepare students for success in evolving industries like journalism. The opportunity can also contribute to her finding success in her field after graduation.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am thrilled to represent the University of Central Florida in a national program and at one of the most renowned newsrooms in the world,\u201d says Asbury, who is also completing a certificate in editing and publishing<\/a> at UCF. \u201cWhile this is a journalism-focused internship, I would not have been able to attain it without the foundations I learned in the College of Arts and Humanities<\/a> through the English department.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of the 81 interns selected, only 12 were chosen for the News Fund\u2019s multiplatform editing track \u2014 and just four will be placed at The New York Times<\/em>. Before beginning their roles in June, the interns will complete a training program at the University of Texas at Austin, led by Dow Jones News Fund alumna Emily Quigley, associate director of the Moody Writing Support Program.<\/p>\n

Asbury credits much of her preparation to the mentorship and academic opportunities she received at UCF.<\/p>\n

\u201c[Senior Lecturer] Kathleen Hohenleitner encouraged me to pursue the editing and publishing certificate, which truly shaped my path,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u2019m grateful for the support and belief in me over the years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Learn more Asbury and how her UCF studies have prepared her for the competitive internship.<\/p>\n

What was your reaction when you found out you were selected for the internship at The New York Times<\/em>?<\/strong>I remember vividly when I received the call from Ms. Quigley, and she asked if I would want to be considered for the editing program at The New York Times<\/em>. I teared up on the phone as I told her that it meant the world to me. After an interview with [Deputy Director of Career Programs] Carla Correa from The Times<\/em> and anxiously waiting a few days, I was told I got the position. It felt surreal \u2014 it still does. I don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve ever felt so grateful and overwhelmed.<\/p>\n

What part of this internship are you most excited about?<\/strong>I\u2019m most looking forward to learning from and working in one of the most renowned newsrooms in the world. Living in New York and working for The Times<\/em> has truly been my dream ever since I was little \u2014 even before I found my passion for editing and journalism. I\u2019m beyond grateful for the opportunity to work alongside some of the most prominent journalists and editors, soaking up every small thing they can teach me.<\/p>\n

How did your classes or professors in the College of Arts and Humanities help prepare you for this opportunity?<\/strong>I wouldn\u2019t be where I am today without UCF, its programs, and its professors. I connected with Dr. Hohenleitner even before coming to the university. The academic advising director referred me to her because I wanted to major in English but was unsure of career options \u2014 so many people had told me it wasn\u2019t practical. She shared information about the incredible resources and opportunities within UCF\u2019s College of Arts and Humanities. I\u2019ve taken several of her classes, and she \u2014 and those classes \u2014 have had a lasting impact on my future.<\/p>\n

I also learned a great deal from courses like Modern English Grammar<\/em>, Introduction to Editing Professions<\/em>, Scholarly Editing and Publishing<\/em>, and others. I’m also immensely grateful to my journalism professors [and College of Sciences<\/a> faculty], Eric Adelson and Richard Brunson, who have supported and believed in me every step of the way.<\/p>\n

Q: Why did you choose to pursue the editing and publishing certificate alongside your English literature degree?<\/strong> A:<\/strong> I\u2019ve always loved editing and knew I wanted to go into the field. Pursuing the certificate helped me learn everything I could to become a better writer and editor. Dr. Hohenleitner encouraged me to pursue it because she knew I\u2019d enjoy the classes and that it would support both my academic and career goals.<\/p>\n

Q: What advice would you give to other UCF students who want to follow a similar path?<\/strong> A:<\/strong> Pursue what you love and what fulfills you \u2014 that\u2019s what matters most. So many people told me not to major in english literature or journalism. They said I\u2019d never succeed in those fields or go anywhere. But here I am. Working for The New York Times<\/em> is a dream come true, and it wouldn\u2019t have happened if I had listened to the people who tried to discourage me.<\/p>\n

But it also took a lot of effort. Take advantage of everything UCF offers. Go to [the journalism program\u2019s] intern pursuit, talk to your professors, get involved in student organizations, utilize Career Services, attend workshops and try new courses. You never know who you\u2019ll meet or what doors will open.<\/p>\n

Where do you hope this experience leads you after graduation?<\/strong>I hope to apply what I learn to both my studies and my career path. While I\u2019m not entirely sure what I want to do after graduation, I believe the right opportunity will come at the right time. I might continue in community journalism here in Orlando, which I\u2019ve grown to love. Or I might pursue an editing residency or fellowship at The New York Times<\/em> and return to a national newsroom.<\/p>\n
