HomeMy Public PortalAbout090_Bryson Proposal for Interns
To: Mayor and City Council of Tybee Island
From: Chief Robert Bryson
The Tybee Island Police Department (TIPD) is pleased to present this proposal for your review. We look forward to partnering with Savannah State, Armstrong Atlantic and South Universities
to provide an educational internship program for college students. TIPD is proposing an internship program be created to provide for a mutually beneficial relationship between Tybee
Island law enforcement professionals and the “Criminal Justice Major” students of the area colleges. The objective of the proposed internship is to provide a criminal justice learning
environment for students while building a relationship with the students. TIPD could observe the students in action and potentially for outstanding students, create a possibility for
employment following the successful completion of the internship.
One of the objectives of the internship would be to support the mission of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources in the prevention and clean up of pollution, stewardship of public
lands and natural resources, and wildlife protection. Another objective would be learning and participating in the mission and goals of the various arenas of the criminal justice system
on Tybee Island. For example, students would observe and participate in functions of the police department, city management and the judicial process in a local perspective.
Thank you,
Robert Bryson
Chief of Police
