FULLERTON -- Peter Martinez, 22, was one of the estimated ten-thousand students who took part in this year's commencement ceremony at California State University, Fullerton on Saturday and Sunday, May 17-18.

Martinez will be complete his CSUF graduation requirements on August 8, 2008.  He received a Bachelor of Arts in Communications, with an emphasis in Broadcast Journalism.

This summer, Martinez was chosen for a three-month paid fellowship with ABC NEWS in New York City.  He’ll receive training in ABC’s state-of-the-art digital bullpen where he will rotate between three of ABC’s digital properties: abcnews.com, ABC NEWS NOW and the World News webcast with Charles Gibson.

Also, Martinez will have the opportunity to research, write, learn control room and studio skills, and learn how to shoot and edit.  During the summer, Martinez will be able to participate in several news division wide learning seminars during the fellowship.

The three-month rotation is almost coming to an end. In late July, Martinez attended the UNITY Convention, the world's largest gathering of journalists. It took place in Chicago.
