Transcript, several writing samples required. Very competitive - you must send a dozen bylines clips as part of the application. See Peterson's Internships 2000. Most interns have had a previous internship at a daily newspaper. The internship places students with unions and community organizations where they may write for a union newspaper, advocate on behalf of immigrant workers, assist in anti-sweatshop campaigns, etc.
Interns receive a stipend and tuition grant.
See Arts Administration Notebook and poster. Interns then return to college and visit area middle and high schools, sharing their experience. They also plan a class trip to the museum and do follow-up work in the classrooms. History Museums Ntbk. Memphis, Tennessee. alt.
