Students share summer work experiences
One student interned in the state department in China. Another studied the use of stem cells to combat traumatic brain injury. A third worked at a private equity firm in New York. Another worked for a franchising company in Mexico, and yet another studied the neurobiology of addiction. More than two dozen Ransom Everglades students shared their work experiences from the summer of 2017 at the fifth-annual Ransom Everglades Internship Forum on Feb. 2. Photo Gallery
Students created posterboards outlining their summer experiences and held court as spectators made their way around the Lewis Family Auditorium. Physics teacher Paul Natland '02 oversees RE's Summer Learning through Internships and Mentoring program, which seeks to create summer opportunities specifically for Ransom Everglades students. Anyone interested in sponsoring or hosting an internship should contact Natland via email or go to the program web page.
