Meet Stephen Benjamin, the most senior Black man in the White House

College students (current sophomores, juniors and seniors) are invited to apply for a semester-long fellowship with Civint, a Columbia-based, nationally-focused consulting firm that connects city council leaders and businesses around the country. The Fellowship would be an ideal fit for students majoring in Political Science, Marketing, Communications, English or Business, but other majors will be considered.

Former Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms is departing as head of a White House office that works with state, local and national officials on key issues — a position that will go to Steven Benjamin, a former mayor of Columbia, S.C.
