With the relevant coursework studied in college, I will be able to keep up with all the different situations that may
arise even though my government experience is limited. My college experience includes classes such as international
relations and international law. Many of my courses investigated the thorny and layered situations of nuclear
development and management. Through those studies, I have gained an understanding of the complex international
system that would make me an asset to your team.(2)
I’m also serving an internship with Senator Sherrod Brown, of Ohio, this summer. Having this chance to work with one
of the most involved and energetic Senators in Congress will help me learn more about the U.S. government and its
inner workings. Getting the chance to be out in the field will allow me to gain the knowledge and experience I could
not get while sitting in a classroom. My schoolwork and internship deepen my focus and drive within my field. My
desire to learn has helped me to graduate from college in a little over three years. (3)
With my education and experience, I believe that I would make a great asset to the National Nuclear Security
Administration. Please contact me at (440) 839-5784 if you wish to arrange and interview. (4)
Sincerely,
Allyson K. Fenn

BANDUNG: Thousands of people who had fled from their houses located on the slopes of smoldering Mount
Gamkonora on Halmahera Island, North Maluku province, could return to their homes after authorities downgraded
the volcano’s top-alert status Monday.
The Head of the Volcanology Center and Geology Disaster Mitigation Agency, Surono, said that the returning
residents still could not get in within three kilometres area of the volcano in Ibu district, West Halmahera regency.
The alert status for the volcano was downgraded because the volcano had shown less volcanic activity. Since
July 10 to July 15, only two small tectonic quakes measuring below 2 of the richter scale were recorded in the
mountain and the volcano did not burst out hot lava or other volcanic materials from its crater.
“Compared to the last Monday’s explosion, wherein the ash spewed was 4,000 above the crater, it is now
only about 10 meters high,” Surono told the journalists in Bandung on Monday.
Following the volcano’s increasing activity last week, which led authorities to put in the top alert status,
around 10,000 residents in Ibu district fled to safety. Most of the residents were taking shelter in South Ibu and
Central Ibu Districts.
Surono warned the people not to get close to the volcano because small emisions of smoke could throw
materials from the volcano’s crater.
The 1.635-meter volcano has erupted 12 times since records have been kept. The last time ash and smoke
streamed out of the volcano was in 1987. No casualties were reported.
