“We have had GPSI interns for over twenty years in the Illinois Department of Transportation, Bureau of Railroads. We depend on the interns to assist in many of our varied responsibilities. The interns have all been bright and learned their tasks quickly, and have generated many fresh, new ideas and perspectives. Also, they have been dependable and displayed a good work ethic. The leadership of the intern program has been responsive. When an intern decided at the last minute not to start the position, there was excellent cooperation from GPSI staff in finding a replacement.” -- Lothar E. Soliwon, Chief, Illinois Department of Transportation, Marketing Unit - Bureau of Railroads
