Paid Internship Opportunity for the Summer!

By Caitlin Hartsell on Dec 18, 2009

Last summer, I had the privilege of being a Koch Summer Fellow for the Show-Me Institute. It was a terrific experience, and I recommend it to anybody who is interested in public policy and liberty. The Charles G. Koch Summer Fellow Program flew me (and the other 81 fellows) to Washington, D.C., for a week at the beginning and end of the summer, where we listened to lectures about liberty, participated in career workshops, made group policy presentations, and had an overall good time.

For the other eight weeks of the program, I interned at at the Show-Me Institute in St. Louis. As a state-based organization, the Show-Me Institute gave me more opportunities to research and write about policy issues than I would have had at a larger national organization. There were also weekly deadlines for the KSFP program, writing op-eds and letters to the editor, and watching online lectures.

And why should you care about my summer internship experience?

The Koch Summer Fellowship Program (run through the Institute for Humane Studies) is accepting applicants for next summer! Any college or graduate student interested in free-market public policy (whether at the federal or state level) should apply. (Make sure to specify the Show-Me Institute as a preferred destination on your application!)

This 2010 program lasts from June 5, 2010, to August 13, 2010. As a state-based fellow, you receive:

  • A $1,500 stipend for the duration of the fellowship
  • Travel allowance to and from D.C. (for both of the week-long seminars)
  • Housing allowance
  • The deadline for applications is January 31, 2010, and admissions are rolling. APPLY TODAY!
