Cornell ILR High Road Fellowship

High Road Fellow

June - July 2023 • Buffalo, NY

What I liked

It was an amazing way to connect with other students and learn about a variety of careers working with ethical businesses in ways that would not ordinarily be offered to students. I was able to gain valuable working experience while also having the support of a cohort during my first summer internship away from home.

High Road Fellow

June - July 2018 • Buffalo, NY

What I liked

The job gave me practical experience working in the nonprofit sector but also gave me a chance to learn about the different factors that go into community economic development.

What I wish was different

I had some issues with overall communication with the administration but found it a good experience overall.

Advice

It's important to find your interest in the projects you're given- try and tailor your experience to fit whatever you find most interesting.
