Union student quoted in Wall Street Journal about internships

Nate Goldstein ’27, an electrical engineering major from St. Louis, was interviewed by the Wall Street Journal for a story about the challenges students are facing in securing internships this year.

Goldstein talked about a new student-led group that he helped create, the Union Consulting Collaborative. The group aims to pair students with Schenectady’s nonprofits and small businesses to support various projects, including research, outreach and web design.

The community organizations get a much-needed service for free, and in return, students get experience completing projects, which they can list as internships or volunteer experience on their resume.
