Wednesday, October 27, 1976 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.

"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. offices Press 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.
