Angelica Brown receives summer internship at WLBT TV-3

Alcorn State University senior and Edwards, Mississippi native, Angelica Brown, is spending her summer vacation sharpening her media skills by shadowing seasoned reporters.

Angelica accepted an internship at WLBT TV-3 that will help her on her journey to becoming a reporter after she graduates. She is excited about the opportunity to learn from veteran reporters.

“It feels great to be an intern at WLBT,” said Angelica, a mass communications major. “It’s an honor to be given this wonderful opportunity. I feel that I can gain a lot of valuable information that I can use in my media career in the future.”

Angelica credits her mentor, Larry Sanders, a professor in Alcorn’s Department of Mass Communication, for her development. She looks forward to applying the knowledge she has gained from him to her internship.

“Mr. Sanders is one of my favorite mass communications instructors. He has done a great job at preparing me for my internship. I learned everything I know from him and I am beyond thankful to have taken his classes.”

Once Angelica completes her internship, she will head to Washington D.C. to participate in the Summer Engineering Experience for Kids (SEEK) with the National Society for Black Engineers in July.
