Caroline Porter joins the ASI Print E-mail
Written by Caroline Porter

Hello – My name is Caroline Porter and I have just started my eight week internship at Adam Smith Institute.

I am currently a junior at Fordham University in New York City, but am studying abroad for the fall semester in London through Boston University. I am working towards a Bachelors degree in Economics, but also have interests in Politics and Sociology. My plan for what to do after college remains undeterminded, but I am looking forward to learning more about my field of study as well as British policy formation through this internship.

Besides school, I am greatly interested in music and travel, and I am a major fan of Law and Order reruns.

You'd have been better off going to Brussels for learning about most of British policy formation.The remaining UK element can probably be assessed in an afternoon at the monkey house in Regent's Park Zoo. Good luck with your studies and internship.
welcome

welcome to the institute and best of luck to you in your international studies. don't forget the importance of finance in your education and how it interrelates to this whole mess called economics (sorry, i'm a finance professor.)

Caroline, what will you be doing for the ASI during your eight week stay? You are lucky to arrive in such "interesting times", as the ancient Chinese proverb/curse put it!
