Hello Lorraine,
I found the announcement below regarding internship opportunities with
the Dept of Ed. For this summer. I thought some of our previous
scholarship recipients might be interested. Please pass this along for
me to whatever list you maintain from the last few years. I would
greatly appreciate it.
Also, have we requested for our scholarship information to be put out
to the Dept. of Ed. And Disability.gov  websites and announcements?

ED Accepting Applications for Summer 2014 Internships Through March 15
The Department of Education (ED) is the place where you can explore
your interests in education policy research and analysis, or
intergovernmental relations and public affairs, or even work with
social media while learning about the role Federal Government plays in
education.

If the above appeals to you, then an internship at ED may be right for
you. Not only will an internship at ED provide an opportunity to learn
first-hand about federal education policy while developing a variety
of other skills, including writing, researching, communication and
time-management skills, but interns also participate in group intern
events, such as brownbag lunches with ED officials, movie nights and
local tours. One of the many advantages to an ED internship is the
proximity to some of the most historic and celebrated sites in our
nation's capital, all accessible by walking or taking the metro.

ED is accepting applications for Summer 2014 through March 15. If you
are interested in interning for the upcoming summer term, there are
three materials you must send before being considered for an
interview:

A cover letter summarizing why you wish to work at ED and stating your
previous experiences in the field of education, if any. Include here
what particular offices interest you, keeping in mind that due to the
volume of applications received, you may not be awarded with your
first-choice office upon acceptance.
An updated resume.
A completed copy of the Intern Application.
Once these three documents are finalized, prospective interns should
send them in one email to StudentInterns at ed.gov with the subject line
formatted as follows: Last Name, First Name: Fall Intern Application.

(Note: For candidates also interested in applying specifically to the
Office of General Counsel (OGC), please see application requirements
here.
