JOBS IN THREE CITIES:
THE MICHIGAN DAILY
Page
Three
Summer internships abound
By LORI GENDELMAN
Interested in working for Un-
cle Sam in Washington, D.C.
or practicing your business
-skills in New York or Chicago?
Then the summer intern pro-
gram is for you. This is "the
chance to have a real-life, non-
academic work experience," ac-
cording to Bev Wistert, a Wash-
ington Intern Program coordina-
tor.
THE WASHINGTON program,
which was started eight years
ago by students, places about
70 finalists in government posi-
tions for eight to ten weeks
starting in June and July. The
voluntary jobs include working
for the White House, special
interest groups, Senate offices,
the Congressional Quarterly,
the, National Education Associ-
ation, the National Visitors Cen-
ter and other organizations.
The Washington intern mass
meeting is tonight at 7:30 in
the Natural Science Auditorium.
Applications are due Wednes-
day, November 3 at Career
Planning and Placement.
The primary requirement for
the program is an avid interest
in participation. Students able
to assert themselves, accept re-
sponsibility and express them-
selves well in speech and on
paper are ideal candidates.
Grade-point is unimportant, but
extracurricular activities may
help.
Financial aid is available to
needy interns. "We do not want
only those people who can af-
ford to go," said Wistert, "but
those who really want to go."
"THE EXPERIENCE really
helps you grow as a person,"
said John Cable, a sophomore
coordinator of the Washington
program.
Four years ago, several Wash-
ington interns decided that pay-
ing internships with businesses
were needed. Thus, the New
York and Chicago programs be-
gan.
These programs focus on LSA
sophomores, juniors and sen-
iors interested in general busi-

ness, finance, publishing and
the media, public relations, ad-
vertising, marketing and re-
tailing.
"THE VALUE of the LSA de-
gree has beenf really shot
down," said senior Gina Kidd,
a program coordinator. "You
don't have to have a degree
in business to possess the need-
ed skills."
"This is also an opportunity
for businessfirms to have the
services of a student for a fair-
ly low salary and view them,
without an investment, for long-
term employment," Kidd said.
Last year ten students work-
ed in New York City for Carl
Ally Inc., an advertising agen-
cy; the Bank of America;
WPIX-FM; Family Weekly, Inc.
and other firms. Three students
worked in Chicago at
such -as the Children's
and Quaker Oats.

THE PROGRAM runs from
June 6 to August 12, and sal-
aries average $140 per week.
The 60 finalists endure a se-
lection process similar to the
one for Washington interns, and
are interviewed by a program
director and a former intern.
Theyarechosen for initiative,
poise and ability to articulate
and write their thoughts.
The New York and Chicago
program will hold a mass meet-
ing November 1 at 8 p.m. in
Rackham Auditorium, and ap-
plications are due at Career
Planning and Placement by
noon Friday, November 5.
