WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) met this week with Nick Lascu, a Cleveland native and senior at The Ohio State University (OSU), where he majors in public affairs with a specialization in urban policy management. Lascu is an OSU John Glenn Fellow and is interning in Washington, D.C. this semester with The Council on Competitiveness, a non-profit organization that strives to increase the United States economic competitiveness in world markets.  Brown met with Lascu at his weekly coffee with constituents in Washington, D.C.

“It was an honor to meet with Mr. Lascu,” Brown said. “Exceptional students like Nick exemplify the intelligence and drive fostered at Ohio colleges and universities.”

John Glenn Fellows are The Ohio State University undergraduates chosen to participate in the university’s Washington Academic Internship Program. Fellows spend a semester in Washington, D.C. exploring public policy in their individual academic interest areas. Participants receive academic credit for completion of an internship, a policymaking and public service course, and a policy paper developed through a research seminar. The Washington Academic Internship Program is run by OSU’s John Glenn School of Public Affairs and is open to all majors.
