The 21-year-oId senior from North Carolina A&T State Uni versity in Greensboro called on more than 35 accounts a week as an area merchandiser in Gaithers burg, Md. Eaves met with convenience and grocery store managers to dis cuss upcoming promotions, han dled the ordering of point-of-pur chase display materials and moni tored product for freshness. This opportunity was all a part of the Miller Brewing Co. Summer Internship Program, established since 1975 to help col lege students gain valuable experi ence in their fields of study. "The opportunity at Miller helped to build my confidence all around," said the business admin istration major. "At first, I was somewhat ner vous and apprehensive about hav ing to meet with so many different people. But as I learned the busi ness, I became more comfortable in presenting myself ;ind servicing my accounts." A native of Durham, the honor student plans to pursue a master's degree in business admin istration with an emphasis in finance. "When I think about all of the responsibility 1 had, with no one looking over my shoulder," added Eaves, "I knew right away that this internship was not Just busy work." Eaves, who enjoys bike rid ing, music and financial reading, felt his first internship was a valu able experience in understanding corporate life. "Miller is a well-known com pany with a strong foundation and will look good on anyone’s resume," he said. Eaves is the son of Dr. Eugene and Quincy Eaves of Durham.

In an environment of openness, opportunity and high expectations, young Martin Luther King, Jr. learned to stretch his intellectual capabilities to their limits. And bolstered by a tradi tion that has produced great scholars, professionals and leaders, he developed the char acter that would shatter the assumptions of a nation. Is it any wonder that, though they enroll only 20% of Black college stu dents, Black colleges produce 40% of Black college graduates? When you’re considering colleges, doesn’t it make sense to consider the ones that helped mold visionaries like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? America’s Black colleges. They can help you find a future that’s beyond your wildest dreams. America’s Black Colleges Are You Smart Enough To Go? This food for thought is brought to you by Kool-Aid Brand Soft Drinks, a supporter of Amertcu's historically Black colleges. ® General Foods USA 1988
