General Comments:

“I had a wonderful time at the externship and learned a wealth of information. I really enjoyed myself and would suggest this opportunity for any student.”

“Great experience! I am a tour guide and now talk about this experience on every one of my tours. It is also a great way to get sophomores into the CDC. I really enjoyed it! Thanks for all the time and effort you all put into it!”

“My externship was an absolutely amazing experience and better than I could have ever expected.”

“I also feel like I have an edge when it comes to applying for one of their (very competitive) summer internships because I met so many people at the company.”
