Student Testimonials
Carrington Tubman
"Through the program I was able shadow someone in marketing, which allowed me to confirm my interest and feel confident in pursuing this career."
Teri LaForest
"The Rotary Student Program gave me the opportunity to meet local professionals in meteorology, giving me valuable insight about the career path. Ultimately, because of the experience, I realized early on that meteorology was not the right fit for me, so I kept exploring and am now excited to be studying naval architecture."
Evan Hampton
“The Rotary student Program has opened my eyes and helped me realized there are plenty of people in our community who are willing to help students prepare for life after high school.”
Emily Perrin
"Having the opportunity to talk to a professional in Civil Engineering gave me valuable information that I will use in my future career path."
Melanie Schweir
“Everyone was so accommodating in the program and I was aligned with my own personal goals to someday become a physician.”
Doyoon Kim
"I still vividly remember my experience (with Congressman Fred Upton and Clay McCausland). As a junior in high school, the field of International Relations seemed quite vague and far away, but the time spent meeting with them allowed me to envision my future career more clearly and take further steps accordingly."
