Internship Overview:
The CSU-AVL project is an online web page intended to educate the public on architectural historic buildings—both on and off campus. The project encourages community members to engage with the content through multifaceted approaches such as (a) middle school and high school teachers developing lectures or assignments on historic architecture, (b) older adult organizations or individuals who are social distancing because of the COVID-19 pandemic engaging in virtual educational content experiences, and (c) existing or prospective Colorado State University (CSU) students or employees exploring interior building spaces.
