Abstract	The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically impacted opportunities for internships in parks, recreation, tourism, and sports. The government mandated numerous agencies to close. Many agencies that remained open reduced staff, froze budgets, shifted programs online, and discontinued internships. The senior internship for Parks, Recreation, and Tourism students at the University of Utah is an important capstone experience. The purpose of the senior internship is for students to integrate and apply knowledge, skills, and abilities learned through their undergraduate education. With this purpose in mind, the department made multiple pivots to facilitate meaningful learning opportunities within the community or on behalf of the community. This article will describe the custom learning paths developed for graduating seniors, the communication required to coordinate the adapted plans, and the lessons learned from implementing these changes.
