Intern Testimonials
“As a facility intern at the O’Connell Center, you have the opportunity to experience a wide variety of events and everything that goes into managing a venue for them. You gain real experience working with clients to meet their needs, while also working with an administrator to ensure the safety of the building. All of the administrators and students are wonderful to work with and it is a great place to gain experience!”

“The semester I spent as an intern with the O’Connell Center was one of the best learning experiences of my life. On a daily basis I was given the opportunity to apply concepts learned in the classroom to real world events. In addition to the events, I was able to work with a professional staff that was always willing to answer my questions and help me develop the skills necessary to pursue my future career goals.”
