130. 2010 Interns The work environment was truly excellent.

Nora Taranto ‘13 Children’s National Medical Center Neurosurgery

161. 2011 Interns I remember my friends asking me whether I would want to enter the journalism field after graduation, and I told them to ask me after this summer when I'd have a better sense of the kind of work it entails.

162. 2011 Interns Emily Gass ‘12 Metropolitan St. Louis Equal Housing Opportunity Council

175. 2011 Interns It was fascinating for me to connect the abstract statues, regulations, and case law with the actual occurrences in the courthouse.

189. 2011 Interns The work that Umoja does is truly inspiring. Their focus is changing the culture of schools to make the climate more accommodating to getting high schoolers on the track to success.

Bryan Peace ‘12 Umoja Student Development Corporation
192. 2011 Interns I felt as though I was making a significant contribution to the organization’s progress through my research, but also was given complete freedom to focus on those projects that were most appealing to me and most aligned with my specific research interests. Caroline Pinke ‘13 Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program
193. 2011 Interns I think working for NIM definitely gave me perspective as to how NGOs function on a regular basis an enabled me to sort of take charge of community projects that NIM wanted to accomplish but wouldn’t be able to with normal staffing, like organizing a community book event and helping with the resource center next door. Shivani Radhakrishnan ‘11 Neighborhood Interfaith Movement
194. 2011 Interns My favorite part of the internship was making home visits. I travelled to all 5 boroughs of NYC and saw a wide spectrum of living conditions.

Natalie Sanchez ‘14 CATA

Andrew Scott ‘14 FERC
198. 2011 Interns My best work experience was going to the food pantries and nonprofit organizations in Trenton and helping clients sign up for food stamps.

It made me feel like a genuinely contributing member of the staff. Lauren Shanley ‘12 GreatSchools
201. 2011 Interns The experience was educational in ways that I hadn’t expected. I learned how things got done in the “real world”.

202. 2011 Interns I cannot imagine a better way to have spent my summer, and continue to be amazed that Princeton allowed me to have such a meaningful and educational experience after my freshman year. I completed meaningful tasks, built relationships, and enjoyed it. Caroline Stone ‘14 The B-Safe Program
203. 2011 Interns The internship went beyond my expectations. The advertized description was accurate, but I was given many opportunities to explore pieces of the organization in addition to Scientific Affairs, which was excellent. Rebecca Thorsness ‘13 Association of American Medical Colleges
205. 2011 Interns The research that the Trauma and Burn division was involved in is centered on making systematic changes to the way trauma resuscitations are run in the ER, which will hopefully improve patient care. As an intern, I was able to get a real glimpse of a physician’s role in the hospital and learn about a lot of different procedures. Jennifer Tse ‘12 Children’s National Medical Center
206. 2011 Interns The best thing about the work environment was the other employees. They were very open and welcoming when it came to including me in on discussions. I was able to sit in on 3 board meetings and got a chance to witness how important decisions and changes are made within an organization. Ugo Udogwu ‘13 Steppingstone
207. 2011 Interns I think this is a good organization to intern at. The staff is very friendly and everyone made an effort to make sure that the experience was enriching. I think it provides one with a wide view of the non-profit sector that is hard to obtain at our age and can be very beneficial when planning for a future career in the sector. Alejandro Van Zandt-Escobar ‘14 The Resource Foundation
208. 2011 Interns This internship is perfect for people who want to see what it is like to work for the government. It really shows what kind of work people do from the policy aspect of things and how those policy decisions help the community as a whole. You also will feel you contributed to helping in a very important area, the energy sector, no matter how small the actual contribution was. Bruno Velloso ‘14 FERC
209. 2011 Interns I loved my internship, to be completely honest. I think that I was able to gain a lot of insight into the non-profit world in general and Massachusetts’ early education progressive work in particular. Ashley Vinson ‘14 Jumpstart for Young Children
210. 2011 Interns So many times this summer, I was touched by the goodness of the clients who so desperately needed our help. Working at Legal Services opened my eyes to the urgency of their situations, and gave the poverty statistics I had seen so many times a human face. Shaina Watrous ‘14 Legal Services of New Jersey
211. 2011 Interns My main project was to prepare two Charter School Annual Reports, comprehensive assessments of the operations of the Philly schools, for the Pennsylvania Department of Education, which was interesting and at times challenging but not overly so. It was satisfying as it was good opportunity to gain an understanding of how the school functioned. Jenna Weinstein ‘14 Scholar Academies
212. 2011 Interns I greatly enjoyed my time at Children’s because my work was both challenging and educational, all while I felt that I was making real contributions to the hospital and to medicine. I felt that I experienced the very real and arduous process of clinical research that exposed me to the very real aspects of medicine and just how much goes into these studies. Roy Xiao ‘14 Children’s National Medical Center
213. 2011 Interns One of the best features of this internship was that the work focused not on “work for work’s sake,” but rather on work that would stimulate and encourage additional research in how to interact with the specific community. Wonpyo Yun ‘13 Albert Einstein College of Medicine
214. 2011 Interns My internship allowed me to take a step back and examine the state of out-of-school time programming in Montgomery County, which was a unique position in which I could analyze the system and help design a plan of action for future collaboration between all the community stakeholders involved in out-of-school time. Mona Zhang ‘12 Office of Community Partnerships
