The Scholars in the Nation’s Service Initiative Graduate Program selected four students to participate in the program next year. Dina Chotrani, Caroline Jones, John Parton, and Caitlin Quinn, all of the Class of 2018, were announced as the newest SINSI scholars in the last week of November. ...

Quinn, of San Antonio, Tex., is pursuing certificates in Latin American studies and Portuguese. She spent nine months in Salvador, Brazil before her freshman year through the University’s Bridge Year Program, where she learned Portuguese and volunteered as an English teacher. She also interned at a newspaper in Malaga, Spain and with a public diplomacy bureau of the State Department in Washington, D.C. On campus, she works at the Writing Center. ...

The SINSI program consists of a two-year MPA program with a full scholarship for tuition and living expenses at the University’s Woodrow Wilson School and a two-year fellowship with an executive branch department or agency. Past internships have included positions at the White House, Environmental Protection Agency, Council of Economic Advisers, National Academy of Sciences, and the National Institutes of Health.
