There’s money to be had out there. A simple process of completing the application and getting a recommendation is all you need. Probably an hour of your time, but well worth it! After all how often can you make $500 an hour 😉. #freemoney #scholarships #itsyourfuture

Dr. Wen Ko was my adviser for my MS at Case Western. He certainly left a life long impact on me and actively encouraged me to pursue building tech. companies. My first company was started with him. When I met Dr. Ko he was around 90 years old and had won a NIH grant which supported my thesis and research. He was the first in many aspects of electrical engineering. I will never forget his graciousness, favor, and endless advice. I encourage all the professionals with experience and gray hair, to find a newbie in need of guidance. They are the future of our nation and innovation. To the entrepreneurs, it is more than valuable to have a seasoned mentor/partner on your team. You can’t learn how to build a business on your own. #ieee #engineering #research #innovation

Happy National Intern Day to our outstanding Denver Scholarship Foundation Marketing and Communications Intern, Reyann Gallegos! 🎉 She is a senior at the University of Colorado Denver majoring in Marketing and Psychology. As a first-generation and multicultural student, she recognizes the need to pave the way for students to come after her. She interned at DSF to continue to empower students to become who they want to be for themselves and their community. Reyann said, "I love the DSF culture. Learning new daily skills, meeting many people, and learning many aspects about the operations of DSF." Read more about Rey's story in this month's blog post! ➡️https://lnkd.in/gq-rHkJy

A direct quote from the NACE Position statement: "Particularly troubling, NACE research has also found that all college students are not equitably represented in internships (Inequity in Internships, NACE, 2021). According to survey data, women, Black, Hispanic, and first-generation students were underrepresented in paid internships. In 2022, NACE followed up on that initial analysis and the internship data from 187 employers demonstrated nearly identical inequities. Again, women, Black, and Hispanic students were significantly underrepresented as a proportion of paid interns. Taken together, the research shows that white, male, and continuing generation students are disproportionally overrepresented in paid internships. Providing more paid internships for underrepresented populations will lead to greater access, opportunity, and success for participating students; help fill critical roles throughout the employment landscape; and lead to needed diversification of the workforce." Internships are a high-impact practice that colleges and universities should be paying significant attention to and identifying action steps to close equity gaps.
