With my college career coming to a close, the thought of life after lectures looms over my head. Amidst all the reading, writing and worrying that is associated with school, I now must contemplate the next step. With this in mind I have begun to apply for internships that would jolt life into my future career.

The first one is called ABC News on Campus. This program selects journalism students from UT to train under highly experienced and seasoned journalists. I have an interview for this internship on Mar. 31rst. The internship will take place either this summer or next fall. Click ABC to visit their site.



The next internship opportunity is with NPR news. I got an e-mail a couple of weeks ago informing me that NPR would be starting up a program similar to the ABC bureau. I immediately sent off my resume. Days passed by and I never got a response, but today I finally did. I just got an e-mail from Mike Olson at NPR and I'm am supposed to meet him this Wednesday at the KUT studio on campus. This would be similar to a dream job. I love NPR's style of reporting and their intelligent approach to news, music and the web.
