Meet Liam, a rebellious third-year engineering student who once held high hopes for the co-op program. After a less-than-ideal experience at a startup where he felt exploited rather than valued, he grew disillusioned with the system. Bitter about paying tuition while working long hours without the job security he expected, Liam became an outspoken critic of traditional co-op programs, preferring to advocate for alternative pathways that prioritize fair employment and innovative learning.
