Senator Murkowski's intern program is open ONLY to Alaska high school students completing their senior year. Numerous activities are planned and every effort is made to provide some degree of supervision, but it is impossible to maintain complete supervision over the interns when they are out of the Senate office. We assume interns are capable young Alaskans who realize that their actions reflect upon their parents, the State and the Senator while they are in Washington. You should designate which session you prefer on the application. You may participate in one session only.
Business attire is required during office hours.
Men need a coat, slacks and a tie and women should have a dress or skirt and blouse, hose and noticeable heels. A number of lectures by prominent government officials, as well as tours and social events are part of the intern program. Evening activities and a weekend trip to the beach are also planned. Office activities include assisting the Senator's staff with daily assignments, attending hearings and committee business meetings, producing a newsletter, and accompanying Senator Murkowski during his daily routine. With the exception of housing, most expenses are covered by Alaska businesses and Alaska individuals who are interested supporters of Alaska's next generation.
