This internship involves working with the CLG planner to assist these communities and others with preservation related needs. Aspects of this work might include assisting in reviewing and revisions of current CLG procedures and requirements, gathering data from communities outside the state for applicability to Kansas local government needs, and assisting in preparing design guidelines and ordinances. The Historical Society offers internships for undergraduates and graduate students. Prospective undergraduate interns should be able to demonstrate their qualifications through applicable coursework and previous experience. However, undergraduate internships may be designed to offer students an introduction to several aspects of public history with less focus on an in-depth project.
