"This fellowship was better than other professional development opportunities. Every Pallas team member made time to speak with us, share advice, and offered their support in finding my next career opportunity."
— Delaney Duff, Spring 2024
"I am truly grateful for the experience I had at Pallas. I think the fellowship provided more growth, learning, and professional development in one summer than many students gain across four years of traditional internships."
— Ben Lindenbaum, Summer 2025
