My name is Carolyn Boylan and I am a
political science major and a psychology minor in the honors program at the
University of Connecticut. I expect to graduate in the spring of 2014. I am
still undecided about what I would like to do as a future career, but as of
right now my plan is to go to law school after I graduate college. After taking
a human rights class last semester I have become much more interested in
pursuing a career in human rights and international law. This is why I am very
excited to be working with Black Sash for my internship; they work to protect
and promote social and economic rights in South Africa which is something I would
be very interested in as a future career.

After being in Cape Town for almost
a week now I would say that reality hasn’t really hit me yet. Since we are
still doing a lot of touristy activities this trip still seems like more of a
vacation than where we’re living for the next 3 ½ months. I think once we start
classes and the internships everything will become more real. As for Cape Town
itself, it’s absolutely beautiful. I keep having to stop to take pictures even
when doing the most mundane activities (like shopping or hanging out at the
house). If this first week is any indication of what’s to come, I am very
excited.
