The Show-Me Institute recently announced its fall internship program. For those interested in applying, the internship will run from early September through early- to mid-December, and will be based at the Show-Me Institute’s Clayton office near Saint Louis. Applications are due on July 3.
If you’re wondering what a Show-Me Institute internship is like, you may want to read this blog entry by our Spring 2007 intern, Steve Bernstetter.
Here’s a quote from one of our Summer 2007 interns, Maurice Harris:
The Show-Me Institute provided me with the opportunity to do research on policy that I was interested in and that has an effect on many people in Missouri. I enjoyed the statewide focus of the institute, where the research could have a direct effect on policy and can be seen quickly. Overall, being at a place where they give interns vast opportunities really taught me a lot and encouraged me to pursue my interests.
How about this quote from our Spring 2008 intern, Nicholas Loyal:
The last four months have been an invaluable experience for me in terms of developing an idea of policy work, and seeing this organization achieve so much at such an early stage has really given me hope that positive change can be affected in the world through a small group of dedicated individuals. I’ll never forget the lessons I learned, I’ll never forget seeing my name in print, and I’ll never forget all that you all have done for me.
If you’re a college student (or you know one) who would like to have a similar experience conducting real research and making a difference in the world of Missouri public policy, apply today!
