The show features accomplished executives and figures from top colleges and companies across the United States to lend definition and to share the latest trends and innovations within their fields. The Wells segment will air sometime this fall. The Wells Corporate Affiliates program was founded in 1986 by the college to prepare women for leadership in the corporate world and provides unique opportunities for pre-professional training. The internships are offered annually, and students are selected through a competitive process. The Corporate Affiliates financial portfolio is managed by students in the investment strategies class under the supervision of Professor Ntoko.
Students research investments and make buy, sell or hold recommendations.
Funds generated by the portfolio are used to fund Corporate Affiliates internships. Spotlight on Industry is co-hosted by Sara Lee Kessler and Alan Mendelson. She received an Emmy Award in 1993 for anchoring the coverage of the World Trade Center bombing. She developed and taught a course entitled Ethics of Broadcast Journalism for Montclair State University. Alan Mendelson currently writes, produces and anchors Mendelson's Best Buys on KCAL-TV in Los Angeles.
