Wayne County Historical Museum
The IU East English Department and Wayne County Historical Museum have a challenging internship available for either Summer or Fall 2013. You will work as a part-time researcher and writer for the Museum; examples of assignments include investigating, organizing and researching artifacts in the museum archives, and writing informative articles, creative non-fiction and/or historical fiction to educate the public about Wayne County's intriguing history and the museum's role in preserving it.
This internship is a professional-level opportunity that will boost your resume, but requires that you be an organized self-starter with top notch writing skills, imagination, initiative and meticulous attention to detail.
To qualify, you must have a minimum GPA of 3.0 and qualify to register for ENG Y398. You will receive a $1,000 scholarship toward tuition and other incidental costs.
