Che credits her experience at The Dartmouth with improving her writing and communication skills.
"What I learned is that we're all stuck in the office for so long, which really creates a very nice bond between all of us," Che said. "It's a professional organization, but it's also a social thing for all of us. I've learned a lot about how to write and interact with people in order to get a lot of perspectives and write the best story I can."
Che said her goals for next year include working on improving writing style and furthering the development of media and video content.

Kreglow said that his experiences at The D have helped him develop skills relevant for a future in business.
"I've learned a lot about the complexities that go into running an organization of our size, about the importance of operations management, looking at costs and revenue and also being able to build a strategic direction off of financial analytics," Kreglow said.
