Phil Hoffman, Tufts University Class of 2014 My time working at Kallos for Council was both inspiring and educational. I was working on real aspects of a political campaign such as managing campaign contributions, organizing fundraisers, and increasing social media reach on facebook, twitter, and flickr to help generate thousands in donations. Andrew Frank, Baruch College, Class of 2014 Not only did I acquire a variety of skills that were immediately useful to me, but they will stay with me throughout my career.
