There are myriad reasons to love co-op, as just about every Northeastern student can attest. This month, as one co-op cycle winds down and another is about to begin, students took to social media to reflect on their recent co-op experiences and share their excitement about their upcoming experiential learning opportunities. Here, we share a selection of their posts.

Today marks the end of my 6 months with the Grow Clinic/Children’s HealthWatch at BMC. I’ve learned so much and am incredibly thankful for the experience I’ve had, the people I’ve worked with, and the patients I’ve met and grown to love. Seemed fitting to end off my time with a catchphrase of our founder- onwards and bloody upwards to both new challenges and new experiences. #iheartcoop A photo posted by Abby Blake (@ablake206) on Dec 20, 2016 at 7:32am PST

Gonna miss these guys next semester, thanks for making my first coop one that I’ll always remember ❤️ #iheartcoop #northeastern #camd #neu #hls #ITS
