Gains and Goodbyes

December 9, 2022 by Vanessa Dotson

As I wrap things up here, I would like to say that this was a wonderful experience that gave me so much that I can take into the future with me. I hope to carry the skills I gained with me after graduation as I transition into my new life outside of school. I was given opportunities to learn new things every day, and it was extremely enlightening and fulfilling to do work in the field I hope to enter.

In the end, I would highly recommend it to anyone doing a history internship in the future. If you like archival work and getting hands-on with history, this is the place for you.

A closer look at my exhibit 🙂
