The New York Corporate Trek was an eye-opener and a dream creator for me. As a first-generation student, the career options at home are often limited, but the trek widened the array of possibilities for me. The site visits and ¹ú²ú´«Ã½ alumni panels helped put unfamiliar career paths into a lens that seemed tangible. I loved getting a glimpse into New York by walking, taking the subway, and bonding with students at ¹ú²ú´«Ã½.
