The Buzz on the Fellows Program
“I got to see the research, planning, and media relations sides of
what Public Strategies does. I enjoyed the fellowship very much and
learned a great deal about the businessit taught me to be able to go
with the flow and think on my feet.”
Ryan Tew, Fellow, Summer 2008
“I loved the fellowship program and was very happy to be given
interesting work. And I enjoyed how well I got to know one client and
that I had opportunities to work for other businesses in various
industries. Everyone in our office was supportive and helpful; they
always answered any questions and genuinely seemed happy to be
here.”
Anne Swift, Fellow, Summer 2008
