Sarah has fond memories of the Career Institute, and when asked what her favorite part of the Career Institute was, Sarah replied:
“One of the best things that I got out of the Career Institute was a chance to intern with my city newspaper. I would have never of even thought I'd be able to do an internship while still at a CC. I gained a lot of knowledge in my field of writing and story telling, I got to report on many interesting stories, and I'm a published writer and photographer from the experience. I also got to be a part of the Guinness World Records Book when I was a part of the world's largest dessert party.”
