The Scripps Howard Foundation is looking for curious, energetic college juniors and seniors studying journalism to report from Washington during the spring and summer terms. Interns are paid a stipend and provided free housing in furnished apartments.
Interns (http://www.shfwire.com/node/5464) find, report and write stories for the web-based Scripps Howard Foundation Wire (http://www.shfwire.com/), take photos, create slide shows and shoot and edit video. Semester in Washington takes six interns in the 14-week spring term and six in the 10-week summer term. Applicants with multimedia experience will be given preference, but we also teach multimedia skills.
