At this time in my life, I would not have traded my intern experience for anything. I am very grateful that I was able to be at Jefferson at the end of my senior year and to be able to take with me all that I have learned - both about the working world and myself.

If I was able to give someone the same opportunity I was given working with Jefferson, I would do it in a heartbeat. Kelly - Winter/Spring 2008
