Mentees: Students and Job Seekers

Student Testimonials

[During DMD] I learned a lot about police work. I did a ride along with Officer Cooke of the Madison Four Freedoms Police Dept. It was a very exciting time for me. I learned all about policemen and what they do, to help better me for the future. I am looking forward to next time.

My day with Dr. Jordan and Dr. Purvis could not have been better! I got to see surgery on a dog that had a broken leg and to see cats and dogs spayed and neutered. I found it to be exciting because I want to be a veterinarian. At the end of the day they offered me a summer internship and I can't wait to go back for another day to just shadow them.

I had a lot of fun on DMD Day. I went to the radio station [and] we had the chance to talk on the radio. The radio station is broadcasted over the Internet. We talked about where we were going to go after high school, and I told her that I was going to go to New York University. After we got off the air we got some e-mails [at the station] and one of them was for me from [someone] from New York telling me about the agriculture program there.
