Interns are required to make a commitment of a minimum of forty hours a week to the program.
Stipends are available for each intern selected for the program.
Individual conferences and group meetings will be conducted regularly to clarify goals and objectives. Assigned issue areas attempt to take into account students' experience, abilities and interests. Each assignment demands a variety of legislative responsibilities. Interns normally recieve 12-15 hours of academic credit for the internship and are responsible for securing this credit themselves, via independent study or the equivelent. Readings from this list will be assigned to give each intern a broad perspective on the state legislative process and current issues.
