Internship Reflection:
"Besides learning about the political system and getting to know the other interns, the aspect I liked most about this program was the networking. I’m a big believer that although someone can accomplish a lot on his own, it’s a lot easier and a lot more influential if that person is working with other people. I’ve met so many people this summer it’s crazy. Although I won’t keep in touch with all of them, I’m sure I will run into a great number of them in the future and it’s cool to be able to say I met them at _____ function when I was just a TACL political intern.
Keep up the great work. I can really see how products of this program are leaders in the Taiwanese American community and I’m proud to be able to say that I had been a part of this program as well in a point in time.
