Notes from the field: Stories and Highlights of Curry Interns doing Good Things

It’s a great motivator when your boss tells you you’re doing a good job. Curry Management student, Sam Beausejour, discovered this while completing a summer internship at Enterprise. He was regularly encouraged by positive feedback but also asked for constructive criticism so he could improve on his skills. “I really learned a lot this summer”, Sam recently said. “I know my professional presentation has improved and I feel much more confident.” Sam did so well, in fact, that he was one of two in the entire region to receive a $500 scholarship for his sales performance.
Congratulations, Sam. Nice job!


Another Curry intern, Com major, Colleen Keddy, had a very good internship experience this summer. Colleen was the primary caregiver for an adult woman with autism. “It’s hard work”, Colleen said, “but it’s rewarding.” It takes a special kind of person to do this kind of job and the folks at the May Institute had lots of praise for Colleen’s work. She was selected as “Employee of the Month” and was hired to return during Intersession.
Way to go, Colleen!
