Prisons as progressive punishment by publik15, Flickr Creative CommonsDue to ever-expanding business, Passageways has brought on two interns for the summer for special projects.  And they are now both utterly defeated cogs in the corporate machine.

No, not exactly, but it has been an eye-opening experience even two weeks in.  Paul Reisert, Purdue Computer Science Senior, states that he is gaining experience with Visual Studio here at Passageways.  Although his security badge is newly minted, he is already an old hand at the development tools for Passageways, working on a special project designed to expand the portal environment.  "Daily scrum meetings are a nice way to keep up-to-date on what's going on," he remarked.

 Brendan Hackett, Krannert MBA student, has been tasked with developing marketing messages and analysing customer service solutions for the growing Passageways customer base.  "It's non-stop here," he commented between messaging brainstorming sessions, "but it's also exciting.  The opportuniies at Passageways to implement real-world solutions are incredible."  Hackett's work will be visible in the months to come through changes to the website.

 The two are fitting in well in the relaxed environment and promise to bring new ideas and vitality to the Passageways team.  We welcome them and hope that they can survive long enough to see the ongoing successes of Passageways.
