In May 2008 the faculty voted to adopt college-wide internship standards. Among these standards is the requirement that all students pursuing a credit-bearing internship must complete a learning plan. This educational tool is what truly differentiates an internship from other employment-related experiences. In the learning plan a student will specify learning goals and document the methods for accomplishing and assessing those goals.
