Dowagiac City Council May 26 met Department of Public Services intern Cody Thomas from Southwestern Michigan College.
"Cody has already proven to be an asset to DPS, providing us with needed assistance in construction inspection, record updates and infrastructure mapping," City Manager Kevin Anderson said. This unpaid internship program partnership with SMC provides Cody with a chance to gain real-world working experience in exchange for college credit that counts towards his degree. Cody will be receiving an associate degree in applied science in computer-aided design/drafting and has been accepted to Ball State University in Muncie, Ind., to study architecture in the fall.
