“I thought the event was amazing! I find that sometimes networking events can feel a little stuffy, but this event was super relaxed, and everyone I talked to seemed really comfortable and happy to be there,” said Culiandra Nero (pictured above), the 2021 Mitchell Scholar from Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School and a junior at Tufts University. “These events have also helped me a lot with networking. The great thing about being able to connect with other Mitchell Scholars is that they come from a wide variety of disciplines and educational backgrounds. I have found that even if I do not meet Scholars at these events that are in my field, they are very happy to put me in touch with their friends and contacts that are active in the field that I am interested in. Scholars always want to help each other out, so these events provide a great opportunity for that.”
