Christy Ralston '19 career graphic titled "Internships, Experiential Laerning, and Research". The Poster reads "Christy Ralston '19, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Magor, Spanish Minor, Savanna, Illinois" before transitioning into a timeline which reads "Resume and essay revisions; Career Assistant in the Berry Career Institute, jonior and senior years; Berry Career Institute-funded internship, Mercy Medical Center histology and pathology lab, Clinton, Iowa, in healthcare; Opperation Walk, Honduras (opportunity from founder Dr. Larry Dorr '63); LEADS; Cornell Fellow at Mayo Clinic". The poster ends with a quote that reads "The Berry Career Institute-funded internships and Cornell Fellows program really provide opportunities for students to travel, get exposed to the real workplace environment, and find out if they're passionate about something. There's no way I could have worked at Mayo without the Berry Career Institute or Cornell Fellows, and that goes for my internship the previous summer as well. Housing, transportation, and food are all paid for."
