Harvard Public Interest Summer Internship 

 

 

 

New Jersey Rhodes Scholar and Recent Harvard College Graduate Extols the Harvard Club of New Jersey's Summer Community Service Fellowship for Undergraduates

 

"In retrospect, the summer experience that was in fact most formative was the summer wherein I worked at my local mental health clinic under the Harvard Club of New Jersey's Summer Public Interest fellowship. The fellowship was both flexible and generous enough to allow me to do what I love - work alongside my community members to collectively improve our well-being. In college, these opportunities are few and far between. I am forever grateful to the Harvard Club of New Jersey for granting me that freedom." 

 

Alex Diaz, Harvard College class of 2014 and Rhodes Scholar
