internships. Each program provides free pre-internship training
seminars on college campuses and weekly salaries starting at $350 for a
minimum of 10 weeks. Interns who return to college full-time the
following fall will receive $1,000 scholarships from the Fund. The

status by Nov. 1, 2006, the application postmark deadline) work as
editors for media companies with news Web sites. Students must have
designated a professor to receive and administer the test on the
application form. Stipend
The Fund requires that all interns be paid at least $350 per week. The
average is about $475, but some papers pay considerably more.
