Winter work expands on students’ education
For many Wheaton students, the winter “break” is an opportunity to continue their education, gaining on-the-job experience at internships on campus, in their local communities and around the world.
This January, 27 students received Wheaton funding toward this effort, working in public health, politics, aeronautics, media and other fields, from Norton, Mass., to Shanghai, China.
