When a young Angelica L. Allen-McMillan’s parents refused to pay her a dollar for every ‘A’ on her report card, she quickly learned that good work should not be done solely for monetary reward. The message was reinforced by Miguel Cardona, her director at INROADS, the internship program that develops talented young people of color for professional careers in business and industry. “You don’t work for the money, you work for the experience,” Cardona told her.
