Please pass this on to any students interested. It is an awesome
opportunity and it applies to almost any major. Thanks, Ryan

The NFL is pleased to announce the launch of the application process for

Program is designed to provide college and graduate students a rare
glimpse into the league's playbook of business strategies.

Selected participants will have the opportunity to contribute to the
organization's success while receiving an unmatched, behind-the-scenes
learning experience. Though interns will be assigned to work with a
specific department, they will also be able to explore all aspects of the
business of professional football through speaker presentations, mentoring
relationships and networking opportunities.

Approximately 25 students with diverse talents and interests will be
selected to participate in the program. Past intern assignments have
included the following departments: Communications and Public Affairs,
Consumer Products, Finance & Accounting, Football
Operations, Human Resources, Information Technology, Legal, Management
Council, Marketing, Media/NFL Network, Officiating and Events.

The 2006 program will begin on June 5th and concludes on Friday, August
4th. Interested students may find the program information and application
on-line at the "NFL Summer Internships" link on NFL.com, which leads to
the link below.

The selection criteria are:
First consideration will be given to undergraduates with an overall GPA of
at least 3.0, graduate students with a GPA of at least 3.3 and law
students in the top half of their class.
Applicants must be currently enrolled undergraduates entering their senior
year in the fall 2006, current seniors intending to enter a graduate or
professional school in the fall 2006, or graduate or law students
currently enrolled at and returning to school in the fall 2006
Applicants must complete the on-line application by January 15, 2006.
Applicants who are selected for interviews must be available within the
U.S.during March 2006.

All applicants will undergo a rigorous selection process. Those selected
to be interviewed will meet with members of an Internship Committee
composed of a select group of NFL employees from various departments and
positions who will evaluate prospective interns' work experience, academic
coursework and ability to suppo rt the NFL's temporary business needs. At
the completion of the interview process, the Internship Committee will
deliberate and select the 2006 summer interns. Typically, interviews are
conducted in March and decisions are made in April.

We are asking for your assistance in distributing or posting the NFL
Summer Internship link below to talented, highly motivated students of
diverse backgrounds who meet the program requirements.

If you know of student internship sites on which employers may post,
please let us know.
In addition, to help get the word out to students, we have available a
poster promoting the NFL Summer Internship Program, an image of which is
attached. If these posters would be useful to you, or if you have any
questions, please reply to this email or contact John Maguire at (212)

only be accepting telephone calls from organizations such as yours or
college career offices.

Thank you for your attention and assistance.

Internship Program for Sophomore Males
 

The Institute for Responsible Citizenship is currently accepting applications for its summer program at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. Each summer, twelve of the most promising young minority male sophomores in the country are given the chance to travel to the nation's capital and engage in prestigious internships while taking rigorous classes at Georgetown. The courses in government and economics are designed to provide these young men with the skills necessary to critically analyze the world's problems while adhering to a deep respect for civil liberties. When the students are not in class or at work, they are often called upon to attend social functions designed to help them network in their field. Personal meetings with such leaders as Barack Obama, John Lewis, and Clarence Thomas are made possible by the intimate nature of the program.

The program runs from June 4 - July 29 and is a two-summer commitment. Tuition and housing are paid for by the Institute, while students are expected to pay for their transportation and food. In addition, those not placed in paid internships will receive a stipend in the amount of $2500.While there are no major requirements, the program focuses on attracting young men interested in the fields of law, politics, business, academics, and the ministry. You should be a sophomore to apply, however,
juniors are considered if they are committed to attending graduate or professional school directly following their senior year.

More information, along with the application, can be found on the web at http://www.i4rc.org/

The application deadline is February 1, 2006.

You thought this thread died and went to heaven, but I'm just passing along a good resource to my sorors and friends looking to intern with some of America's advertising agencies.

F.Y.I. The internship at E.B. Lane in Phoenix is accepting applications until the end of this month. I got accepted for their internship and they have two spots left and I could use a roommate who has to go to work at the same time! :D
