Three Sports/ Three Internships

And seven medals. Zach Reed ’23 is a double major (global studies and political science) and double minor (business administration and German) who competes in three sports (men’s soccer, indoor and outdoor track)—oh, and completed three internships and studied in Maastricht, The Netherlands. Reed said the most meaningful internship was in former Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf’s Correspondence and Constituent Affairs Office.

“I had numerous roles in the Governor’s office,” said Reed, who plans to enroll in LVC’s master of science in Intelligence and Securities Studies program this fall. “I enjoyed attending bill signings, where I met and interacted with numerous senators and representatives, but the highlight was meeting some of the original Tuskegee Airmen from World War II.

“My passion for sports statistics, including my track & field times, led to my interest in intelligence collections and public safety. I want to join the intelligence field to help public safety and fight against online platforms that have much of our personal information.”

Reed, who visited 28 colleges and universities during his college search before deciding on LVC, which was his last visit, has earned All-MAC academic and athletic accolades in soccer and track & field, including seven championship medals as of this writing. With two seasons of track eligibility remaining, he is in the top 10 all-time in seven events.
