  • 2020 Summer Intern Opportunities
    2020 Summer Intern Opportunities The Asheboro Copperheads are members of the Coastal Plain League, a 15-team summer collegiate wooden bat baseball league sanctioned by both the NCAA and Major League Baseball, headquartered in the Raleigh, NC area, with teams located in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Georgia. The league plays a 52-game regular season schedule with play beginning in late May and culminating with the league playoffs, which normally conclude in early August. The CPL has been in operation since 1997 and the Copperheads have been a member of the league since 1999. While the CPL is an amateur league, teams are operated under the National Association (Minor League) model used by MLB-affiliated and independent professional minor league teams. The Copperheads offer unpaid student internships during the season to college students.Through their respective schools and in conjunction with the Copperheads, students may receive academic credit for their internship duty. While students are not paid, housing will be arranged if needed at NO COST through the team’s host family program. Internships begin in mid- May, or as the student is available following the end of the school term, and run through early to mid-August depending upon the team’s participation in CPL post-season play. Interns may be asked to remain available for a couple of days following completion of play to assist with season-ending tasks if it does not interfere with the student’s return to school. Internship duties may include, but are not limited to, the following areas: - Sales, Marketing & Merchandising - Stadium & Team Operations - Community & Media Relations (Print & Broadcast) Interns will be required to work a varied schedule and must be available for all home games (weekdays and weekends).

  • Place Studies on Tourism and Identity in Modern South Carolina
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: SOMBREROS AND MOTORCYCLES: PLACE STUDIES ON TOURISM AND IDENTITY IN MODERN SOUTH CAROLINA Paula Nicole King, Doctor of Philosophy, 2008 Directed By: Professor Mary Corbin Sies, Department of American Studies This dissertation examines the rise of tourism as an important social and economic force in the U.S. South through place studies of tourist sites in South Carolina. The roadside attraction South of the Border and the historically black town of Atlantic Beach are analyzed as touriscapes that provide historical narratives foregrounding the connections between place and southern identity in the modern era. Touriscapes are defined as places where perspectives overlap and identities intersect to produce spaces of serious cultural and historical significance as well as recreation and fun. Both of these touriscapes were enacted as tourism developed and Jim Crow segregation began to crumble, and they have survived into the twenty-first century. They are sites of commercial development, resistance, and political strife that should be studied, engaged, and preserved for future generations to better understand the complexity of southern history, culture, and identity. SOMBREROS AND MOTORCYCLES: PLACE STUDIES ON TOURISM AND IDENTITY IN MODERN SOUTH CAROLINA By Paula Nicole King Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2008 Advisory Committee: Professor Mary Corbin Sies, Chair Professor Angel David Nieves Professor Leslie Rowland Professor Nancy Struna Professor Psyche Williams-Forson © Copyright by Paula Nicole King 2008 Dedication To my father, Paul Michael King ii Acknowledgments I want to thank Professor Mary Corbin Sies for helping the intellectual focus of this work develop and for the rigor with which she read it and the time she took to discuss it with me.
