Anne Marie Underwood
"As a history major, I completed internships in 3 fields: sustainability, agriculture, & law. No matter the discipline, reading comprehension, written communication, & the ability to do research were vital to my success. Studying history helped me develop those key skills."
Madelyn Reber
"My internship at the Old Exchange & Provost Dungeon taught me that history can be small & still extremely important. I learned how to advocate for myself. I'm capable of more than I ever originally thought." Update: Madelyn excelled at all of her internship duties & was offered a job!
Marian Williams
