“My project involved conceiving, writing, editing, distributing, and analyzing data from a worker voice survey…I aimed to collect 200 responses by the conclusion of the survey period, and initiated a focus group listening campaign after three months of collecting data.”

“I was able to apply theoretical conceptualizations gained in class to solve problems in human resource and talent management, which was such a unique experience for me.”

“Having worked in the State Legislature prior to La Follette, and going back to it while being a student, has helped me appreciate certain aspects I hadn’t before.”

“Chapin Hall pays attention to ethics and quality research that I have never experienced in the several research teams I have previously been on.”

“As a policy intern, I found myself at the intersection of theory and practice, where the theoretical knowledge gained from La Follette coursework became the foundation for practical application.”

“I would recommend this internship to future students because I think this is a values-based organization and I have been able to learn some really innovative policies and practices…”

“This internship shaped the way I view labor policy in our state, and this would be an agency I would be happy to continue working at full-time upon graduation.”
