No sooner had Kelly Morman, Sr. Political Science, returned from her Washington Center internship with the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Welfare and Pensions, than she began appearing on local television news programs.
In her first interview, Kelly took part in a woman-on-the-street interview concerning a new billboard along Highway 235. The billboard displayed the message that a man in Hardin County had been arrested with several heroin-filled balloons "in his butt," and asks "Do you know where your heroin has been?" WLIO Lima TV reporters were asking for reactions to the billboard and Kelly replied that she had not been aware that the heroin problem was so bad in Hardin County.
Her second interview was part of a story on ONU President Kendall Baker's final graduation commencement that also ran on WLIO. The interviewer asked Kelly, who was mentioned by name by commencement speaker Senator Sherrod Brown, was asked about her university experience and particularly about her internship, which she described as fantastic.
Next year Kelly will be joining the Teach for America Program, teaching disadvantaged students in the Mississippi Delta. Kelly's career in the department was one of high achievement and accomplishment and we expect great things of her in the future.
Best of luck Kelly!
